Overview of the activities carried during the first three-year term of the mandate 2011, para. 105 | 19 août 2019 | Paragraph | Special Rapporteur on the rights of indigenous peoples | Non-negotiated soft law | Special Procedures' report | We recognize that, three years from the 2015 target date of the Millennium Development Goals, while there has been progress in reducing poverty in some regions, this progress has been uneven and the number of people living in poverty in some countries continues to increase, with women and children constituting the majority of the most affected groups, especially in the least developed countries and particularly in Africa. |

Overview of the activities carried during the first three-year term of the mandate 2011, para. 191 | 19 août 2019 | Paragraph | Special Rapporteur on the rights of indigenous peoples | Non-negotiated soft law | Special Procedures' report | We underscore that the global nature of climate change calls for the widest possible cooperation by all countries and their participation in an effective and appropriate international response, with a view to accelerating the reduction of global greenhouse gas emissions. We recall that the United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change provides that parties should protect the climate system for the benefit of present and future generations of humankind on the basis of equity and in accordance with their common but differentiated responsibilities and respective capabilities. We note with grave concern the significant gap between the aggregate effect of mitigation pledges by parties in terms of global annual emissions of greenhouse gases by 2020 and aggregate emission pathways consistent with having a likely chance of holding the increase in global average temperature below 2° C, or 1.5° C above pre-industrial levels. We recognize the importance of mobilizing funding from a variety of sources, public and private, bilateral and multilateral, including innovative sources of finance, to support nationally appropriate mitigation actions, adaptation measures, technology development and transfer and capacity-building in developing countries. In this regard, we welcome the launching of the Green Climate Fund, and call for its prompt operationalization so as to have an early and adequate replenishment process. |

The right of indigenous peoples to development with culture and identity, the right of indigenous peoples to participation and the obligation of States to implement the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples 2010, para. 36 | 19 août 2019 | Paragraph | Special Rapporteur on the rights of indigenous peoples | Non-negotiated soft law | Special Procedures' report | The Special Rapporteur thus emphasizes that indigenous peoples must be allowed the opportunity to continue to progress and improve decision-making concerning development on their own terms, and to remedy any shortcomings through their own forms of internal regulation and accountability. States and other actors should take care to avoid conditioning their development assistance for indigenous communities on predetermined outcomes that are presumed by the outsiders to be the correct outcomes. In other words, indigenous peoples must be allowed the opportunity to make mistakes, to learn from those mistakes and to build ever greater capacity and wisdom to advance in their own development objectives and choices about the future. |

The right of indigenous peoples to development with culture and identity, the right of indigenous peoples to participation and the obligation of States to implement the United Nations Declaration on the Rights of Indigenous Peoples 2010, para. 53 | 19 août 2019 | Paragraph | Special Rapporteur on the rights of indigenous peoples | Non-negotiated soft law | Special Procedures' report | Finally, with respect to indigenous decision-making concerning internal matters, while there are some noteworthy examples of indigenous autonomy and self-government throughout the world, continued efforts by States are needed to promote and consolidate legal recognition and accommodation of indigenous institutions of self-governance. Additionally, there is a need for indigenous peoples themselves to continue to endeavour to strengthen their capacities to control and manage their own affairs and to participate effectively in all decisions affecting them, in a spirit of cooperation and partnership with government authorities at all levels, as well as a need to address any issues of social dysfunction within their communities. |
