A/HRC/19/39 Development Goals were global targets that dealt with averages and aggregates, the poorest and marginalized were not taken into account. There was therefore a need for other instruments to reach the poorest. The Millennium Development Goals were necessary but insufficient. In this context, the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights was an important instrument. Even though the World Bank was not a signatory to the international instruments, its member Governments were, and they should influence the Bank to include the right to development. The primary contemporary challenge to the right to development was the intensification of demand for resources; for example, African countries rich in minerals were a target for exploitation. Resource-rich areas were usually inhabited by indigenous peoples, who were increasingly affected by the exploitation of those areas. There was a need for a win/win sharing of benefits among the Government, companies, indigenous peoples and local communities. VI. Concluding remarks by the moderator 34. The moderator closed the panel discussion by thanking all present. She remarked on the importance of adhering to human rights standards, ensuring that the rights of vulnerable groups were promoted, the need to mobilize resources to enable participation and that free, prior and informed consent should be obtained by both Governments and business entities before commencing development projects. 10
