A/HRC/34/73 103. Special attention should be accorded to women’s rights in all these areas, with a view to reducing the extreme gender inequality in Haiti. 104. The appointment of a high-level focal point for human rights, such as existed until December 2014, would be very useful for ensuring the consistency and effectiveness of the Government’s action in this area and the necessary participation of civil society in the development and implementation of a policy to respect, protect and promote human rights in Haiti. 105. The Independent Expert continues to consider that the human rights situation in Haiti, although extremely serious, can be remedied if all efforts to improve it pull in the same direction. He once again issues a special call to the authorities, civil society and the international community to build a strong consensus on this matter, for which the starting point could be these recommendations, or perhaps other, more relevant, ones, but in any event a consensus that could generate a strong political will and steadfast efforts to achieve a set of core results. 106. The Independent Expert reaffirms his strong commitment to assist in this undertaking. 107. Bearing in mind the MINUSTAH consolidation plan and the ongoing discussions regarding the presence of the United Nations in Haiti, the Independent Expert reiterates the importance of ensuring that the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights maintains a presence in Haiti in order to support efforts to overcome the obstacles to the full enjoyment of human rights in the country.
