Comparative study of enabling environments for associations and businesses 2015, para. 106
- Paragraph text
- He believes that these differences are motivated more by politics than practicality. Economic and commercial interests are prized over what are perceived as non-economic activities. Consequently, the influence and opinions of industry take precedence in State policy over social justice and fundamental rights. This approach ignores the fact that a vibrant civil society is essential for sustainable economic development, and that businesses benefit from an empowered civil society sector.

Fundamentalism and its impact on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association 2016, para. 91
- Paragraph text
- The Special Rapporteur emphasizes that the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association are due to everyone without distinction. This includes both those who hold fundamentalist views and those who hold differing views. The rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association play a key role in promoting tolerance, broadmindedness, diversity and pluralism. States must walk a fine line in balancing the rights of various groups and must ensure that one group is not favoured, either in policy or in practice. Such rights must therefore not only be protected but also facilitated.

Challenges faced by groups most at risk when exercising or seeking to exercise the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and/or of association 2014, para. 72
- Paragraph text
- The rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association play a key role in empowering individuals belonging to groups most at risk to claim other rights and overcome the challenges associated with marginalization. Such rights must therefore not only be protected, but also facilitated. It is the responsibility of all stakeholders to ensure that the voices of individuals belonging to groups most at risk are heard, and taken into account, in compliance with the principles of pluralism of views, tolerance, broadmindedness and equity.

Freedom from discrimination is also due to those who advocate and lobby on behalf of groups most at risk.

In particular, he calls upon States to:] Ensure that no derogation is made from the rights to life and to be free from torture and other cruel, inhuman or degrading treatment or punishment of individuals belonging to groups most at risk;

- Paragraph text
- Despite that, States generally prioritize economic and corporate interests at the expense of workers' rights, a counterproductive approach that exacerbates poverty and inequality. This situation must be urgently addressed, both to allow people to exercise their rights and to ensure the viability of the world's economic system. In this spirit, the Special Rapporteur calls upon States, multilateral organizations, businesses and other stakeholders to commit themselves to creating the best possible enabling environment for the exercise of the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association in the workplace. The Special Rapporteur proposes the following recommendations as steps towards realizing those goals.

The exercise of the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association in the context of elections 2013, para. 56
- Paragraph text
- The Special Rapporteur wishes to underscore the fact that electoral periods are a unique moment in the life of a nation to confirm, and even strengthen, democratic principles, such as non-discrimination, gender equality, pluralism of views and parity. Democracy is a singular way of allowing for effective popular participation in decision-making processes at both national and local levels. He stresses that electoral periods are such an important time to build democratic, responsive and accountable institutions and that very strict and clear safeguards should be put in place by States to prevent undue interference in public freedoms, in particular in the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association. Further, in times of elections, States should make greater efforts to facilitate and protect the exercise of these core rights, which should be enjoyed by everyone, especially by members of groups at risk. In effect, genuine elections cannot be achieved if the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association are curtailed.

Ability of associations to access financial resources as a vital part of the right to freedom of association & Ability to hold peaceful assemblies as an integral component of the right to freedom of peaceful assembly 2013, para. 80
- Paragraph text
- Moreover, the Special Rapporteur believes that the "Arab Spring", and the "occupy movement" which subsequently flourished in many parts of the world, have opened a door which will never be closed. They provide a non-violent alternative for change as well as give authorities a chance to understand the views and feelings of citizens. These events indelibly confirmed that holding peaceful assemblies is a legitimate and powerful means to make calls for democratic change; greater respect for human rights, including economic, social and cultural ones; and accountability for human rights violations and abuses. The ability to hold such assemblies has proven particularly crucial for groups most at risk of violations and discrimination enabling them to address their often desperate plight in a meaningful manner.

- Paragraph text
- Backlash from the Arab Spring of early 2011 continues to be felt globally, with increasingly less space in which civil society actors can promote or defend collectively a field of mutual interest. Democracy involves more than just exercising the right to vote. For democracy to flourish, people must be guaranteed the whole range of fundamental rights and freedoms, including the rights to freedom of expression and of assembly, as a means to influence the public policies of the State. In recent years many States have responded to people's assertions of peaceful dissent by violently clamping down on peaceful protests and other forms of assembly, unduly restricting the ability of associations to form and operate, and physically assaulting civil society actors.

The exercise of the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association in the context of multilateral institutions 2014, para. 25
- Paragraph text
- Effective engagement also requires a robust mechanism for ordinary citizens to submit information and complaints. Multilateral institutions should do more to expand their efforts in this area. The World Bank, for example, has the Office of the Compliance Advisor/Ombudsman and its Inspection Panel, an independent complaints mechanism for people and communities who believe that they have been, or are likely to be, adversely affected by a World Bank-funded project. Although some have criticized these processes for failing to protect labour rights and not adequately guarding against discrimination, the concept of having such a complaint system is a good one and should be encouraged.

Ability of associations to access financial resources as a vital part of the right to freedom of association & Ability to hold peaceful assemblies as an integral component of the right to freedom of peaceful assembly 2013, para. 31
- Paragraph text
- Human Rights Council resolution 22/6 calls upon States to ensure that "that no law should criminalize or delegitimize activities in defence of human rights on account of the origin of funding thereto." Article 2 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights requires States to "take steps, individually or through international assistance and co-operation […] to the maximum of their available resources, with a view to achieving progressively the full realization of the rights recognized in the present Covenant". Coupled with article 11 of the same Covenant, which provides for States to "take appropriate steps to ensure the realization of this right, recognizing to this effect the essential importance of international co-operation based on free consent" (emphasis added), this means that States have the obligation to mobilize resources that are available within the society as a whole, but also to gather those that are available from the international community. Hence, restrictions on foreign funding under the guise of preservation of State sovereignty arguably constitute a violation of States' obligation to respect, protect and fulfil these rights, as it amounts to failure on the part of the State to maximize resources through international assistance and cooperation. This is also the sense of the Maastricht Guidelines on Violations of Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, which stipulate that violations of these rights notably include: "the adoption of legislation or policies which are manifestly incompatible with pre-existing legal obligations relating to these rights […]; the adoption of any deliberately retrogressive measure that reduces the extent to which any such right is guaranteed."

- Paragraph text
- The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights both explicitly protect the right to form and join trade unions. International human rights law also imposes upon States a duty to actively promote, encourage and facilitate the enjoyment of fundamental rights, including labour rights (A/70/266, para. 4). Further, the notion that States should promote trade unionism among workers is implicit in the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights. States must take measures to ensure that third parties do not interfere with union rights.

- Paragraph text
- States have the primary role in preventing or halting violations of workers' rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association, with clear obligations to protect, promote, facilitate and fulfil those rights, even in the global economy. Yet workers' ability to exercise their rights is in precipitous decline. Many States place obstacles, both in law and practice, that restrict workers' rights or fail to enforce laws protecting those rights. The International Trade Union Confederation found that 50 of 141 countries surveyed had such restrictions.

Fundamentalism and its impact on the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association 2016, para. 17
- Paragraph text
- The values of pluralism, tolerance and broadmindedness are at the core of any successful and stable democratic State. Indeed, the European Court of Human Rights has stated that there can be no democracy without pluralism. The Special Rapporteur has previously noted (see A/HRC/26/29, para. 31) that the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association are so fundamental in part because of their crucial role in promoting pluralism. They provide a platform for all people - including those at the margins - in any society to mobilize, organize, and work towards change in a peaceful manner.

Furthermore, article 20 (2) prohibits advocacy of national, racial or religious hatred that constitutes incitement to discrimination, hostility or violence.

The exercise of the rights to freedom of peaceful assembly and of association in the context of elections 2013, para. 4
- Paragraph text
- Democracy, as a system through which the people participate directly or indirectly in the conduct of public affairs, has broad appeal across the globe. Elections, referendums and plebiscites, in which people choose their representatives and express their choice of laws or policies, are held in the majority of countries in the world. As stipulated in article 21 (3) of the Universal Declaration of Human rights, democracy is a process in which "[t]he will of the people [is] to be the basis of the authority of government". It is commonly thought of as a process with regular periodic, free and competitive elections to decide on policies directly or indirectly through chosen representatives that must be accountable to their electorate. In other words, democracy, as reflected in the electoral process, generally involves the use of clear predictable processes with uncertain outcomes, while a non-democracy can be identified by the fact that the whole electoral process is characterized by unclear and uncertain processes but with predictable outcomes. Nevertheless, the quality of elections is increasingly coming under scrutiny in order to ensure that election outcomes are representative of the will of the people. Elections confer legitimacy on Governments; if those elections are not considered to reflect the will of the people, therefore, a sense of discontent and disenfranchisement may result and sometimes cause violent conflict. In order to sustain the democratic ideal, it is necessary for regimes to uphold the rule of law, respect and protect human rights and remain vigilant and responsive to peoples' views and opinions at all times.
