- Paragraph text
- Education provides a gateway to the full enjoyment of other rights, including rights to freedom of movement and expression, access to justice and remedies when human rights are violated, participation in the cultural, social and economic life and in public affairs. Lack of education has perpetuated the cycle of poverty, racism and segregation, from the time of the infamous transatlantic slave trade to the present date. Conversely, education provides a vital key to sustainable poverty alleviation.

Report of the Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent on its nineteenth and twentieth sessions 2017, para. 51
- Paragraph text
- The Sustainable Development Goals and the International Decade for People of African Descent present opportunities for concrete action to advance the human rights of people of African descent. Structural racism, racial discrimination, Afrophobia, xenophobia and related intolerance are the root causes of inequality and must be addressed. The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development envisages a world of universal respect for equality and non-discrimination between and within countries, including gender equality, by reaffirming the responsibilities of all States to respect, protect and promote human rights, without distinction of any kind as to race, colour, sex, language, religion, political or other opinions, national and social origin, property, birth, disability or other status. In adopting the Goals, States have pledged that no one will be left behind and to reach the furthest behind first. The Goals are clearly focusing on the needs of the poorest and most vulnerable.

Report of the Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent on its nineteenth and twentieth sessions 2017, para. 77
- Paragraph text
- States must ensure that people of African descent have access to quality education which enables them to compete on an equal footing with others in the labour market. States must acknowledge the persistence of structural racism and multiple forms of discrimination within the education system and must therefore put in place appropriate legislation and affirmative action policies to tackle the problem. School curriculums for all should take into consideration an accurate account of the history of the transatlantic trade in enslaved Africans, enslavement and colonialism.

- Paragraph text
- Considering the conditions of extreme poverty in which the majority of people of African descent live in both developing and developed countries, development activities and programmes must address all people of African descent, regardless of the country in which they live.

Report of the Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent on its nineteenth and twentieth sessions 2017, para. 56
- Paragraph text
- The Working Group concludes that growing income, wealth and other forms of inequality are threats to social stability. Without change, growing inequalities and segregation disrupt our societies, and people of African descent are the first victims. The eradication of structural racism is key for attaining the Sustainable Development Goals. This is further underlined in the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action, which emphasize that poverty, underdevelopment, marginalization, social exclusion and economic disparities are closely associated with racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance and contribute to the persistence of racist attitudes and practices, which in turn generate more poverty.

- The Working Group also recommends that States guarantee quality legal aid to facilitate access to justice in all areas, as well as support for mechanisms of alternative dispute resolution, which often prove to be particularly effective in dealing with racism against people of African descent. In addition, the Working Group urges States to adopt special measures to facilitate increased representation of people of African descent in the judiciary and in law enforcement.
