Public services also mitigate the impact of skewed income distribution and directly contribute to reducing inequality.

Protection of minority rights in conflict prevention 2010, para. 57
- Paragraph text
- Equal access for all communities to employment in public services can become a highly contentious issue, especially in countries where such jobs form a large proportion of the available labour market. In countries where political power is seen to be concentrated in the hands of one or a few identity groups, it is common for those groups to be disproportionately represented in the public service, which can be a powerful source of tension.

Right to health and criminalization of same-sex conduct and sexual orientation, sex-work and HIV transmission 2010, para. 40
- Paragraph text
- In China, laws have evolved to allow for the punishment of sex workers through administrative detention; workers are detained for the purposes of re-education, which causes significant psychological suffering, along with stigmatization and shaming of those involved in sex work in the region.

Right to health and criminalization of same-sex conduct and sexual orientation, sex-work and HIV transmission 2010, para. 36
- Paragraph text
- Criminalization represents a barrier to accessing services, establishing therapeutic relationships and continuing treatment regimes, leading to poorer health outcomes for sex workers, as they may fear legal consequences or harassment and judgement. This is particularly concerning given that HIV has been noted to disproportionately affect sex workers in many regions.

Qualitative data collection methods are a practical and powerful complement to traditional quantitative methods.

Debt bondage as a key form of contemporary slavery 2016, para. 6
- Paragraph text
- People enter the status or condition of debt bondage when their labour, or the labour of a third party under their control, is demanded as repayment of a loan or of money given in advance, and the value of their labour is not applied towards the liquidation of the debt or the length of the service is not limited and/or the nature of the service is not defined. Consequently, bonded labourers are often trapped into working for very little remuneration, or in some cases none, to repay the loan or advance, even though the value of their labour exceeds that sum of money.

Manifestations and causes of domestic servitude 2010, para. 75
- Paragraph text
- Many States do not afford domestic workers the equal protection of labour law, which invites exploitation, leading, in extreme cases, to domestic servitude. In a number of States, domestic work is excluded from the scope of application of relevant labour laws. At best, parallel regimes are set up that provide lesser standards of protection. It is very common to exclude domestic workers from essential social benefits such as health care, compensation in case of invalidity, pensions or maternity leave and labour rights such as paid vacations, rest days or maximum work hours.

Preventing and addressing violence and atrocities against minorities 2014, para. 69
- Paragraph text
- The creation of community or neighbourhood watch and early warning mechanisms that enable at-risk communities to identify threats and quickly contact law enforcement authorities is another measure that has been put in place, including in Nigeria where violence and intercommunal tensions have been present. Having local "eyes and ears" to report potential incidents offers valuable, community-based, early warning potential, although it remains reliant on a rapid response by law enforcement bodies to alerts if it is to be effective.

Right to health and criminalization of same-sex conduct and sexual orientation, sex-work and HIV transmission 2010, para. 47
- Paragraph text
- Criminalization represents a barrier to participation and collective action, through the suppression of activities of civil society and individual advocates. The participation of sex workers in interventions has been shown to have significant benefits. Organizations representing sex workers took an early lead in attempting to slow the spread of HIV/AIDS, through the promotion of condom use, the development of AIDS education programmes and inclusive research studies.

Right to health and criminalization of same-sex conduct and sexual orientation, sex-work and HIV transmission 2010, para. 37
- Paragraph text
- The use of punitive measures against sex workers, such as antisocial behaviour orders in the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland, has undermined effective health promotion activities. Raids, cautions and arrests generally result in a shift of the sex worker population, often towards unsafe areas, putting sex workers at higher risk. Criminalization has also been noted to diminish the "bargaining power" of sex workers in choosing clients and negotiating condom use.

Right to health and criminalization of same-sex conduct and sexual orientation, sex-work and HIV transmission 2010, para. 50
- Paragraph text
- Decriminalization also assists in appropriately targeting these health promotion projects, as sex workers are more likely to self-identify and voluntarily take part in interventions if the risk of legal repercussion is eliminated. Effective interventions around the health of sex workers and clients should also consider shared responsibility and client behaviour; this is increasingly possible in an environment where clients are not criminalized for using the services of sex workers.

Right to health and criminalization of same-sex conduct and sexual orientation, sex-work and HIV transmission 2010, para. 35
- Paragraph text
- For example, New Zealand decriminalized sex work in 2003, with the express aim of safeguarding the human rights of sex workers. Prior to decriminalization, sex workers were less willing to disclose their occupation to health workers or to carry condoms. Since decriminalization, sex workers have reported feeling that they have enforceable rights, including the rights to health and security of person, and are increasingly able to refuse particular clients and practices, and negotiate safer sex.

In many countries, Internet filtering is conducted under the guise of maintaining social harmony or eradicating hate speech, but is in fact used to eradicate dissent, criticism or activism.
