A/HRC/34/25 (e) Facilitating access to justice, redress and remedy for those who experience abuse and violation of their rights in the process of development, including by receiving and processing complaints, where national human rights institutions have such functions.9 VIII. Conclusions and recommendations 50. In the light of the close linkages between the Sustainable Development Goals and economic, social and cultural rights, the implementation of the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development presents an unprecedented opportunity for the advancement of economic, social and cultural rights, civil and political rights, and the right to development as well. The benefits of the two convergent agendas will not, however, be fully exploited unless specific and conscious attention is paid to the requirements and attributes of economic, social and cultural rights during the implementation of the 2030 Agenda. 51. A number of requirements for advancing the realization of economic, social and cultural rights in the context of implementing the Agenda 2030 for Sustainable Development have been highlighted in the present report, inter alia: (a) To ensure that the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals and their targets is consistent with international human rights law, particularly the substantive content of economic, social and cultural rights, including the core obligations, minimum core content and the interrelated and essential features of availability, accessibility, acceptability and quality of each right; (b) To prioritize focus and actions on addressing inequalities and discrimination to leave no one behind and reach the furthest first, requiring the disaggregation of data based on all grounds of discrimination under international law while paying close attention to the needs of all marginalized groups, including those not mentioned in the 2030 Agenda; (c) To strengthen the accountability framework at the national and global levels, and to ensure the effective and meaningful participation of people, particularly those left furthest behind, in decisions that affect their lives; (d) To promote accountable partnerships for the implementation of the Sustainable Development Goals, including by supporting the application of the Guiding Principles on Business and Human rights to private sector partnerships; (e) To promote further the linkages between the international human rights mechanisms and the follow-up and review mechanisms of the 2030 Agenda; (f) To promote and implement a human rights-based approach to data, and the sharing of good practices in this regard. 9 See also “Realizing rights through the Sustainable Development Goals: the role of national human rights institutions”, briefing paper by the Danish Institute for Human Rights and the Centre Economic and Social Rights, June 2015. 13
