A/HRC/8/WG.2/TF/2 page 22 a framework of human rights.27 ECLAC has a long record of influencing economic development policies and has embraced most recently a vision of development based on social cohesion and human rights. 82. Other regional instruments which may be examined at a later stage of the task force’s work include the recently adopted ASEAN Charter and the Arab Charter for Human Rights, containing an explicit article on the right to development, which is expected to enter into force soon. IV. RECOMMENDATIONS 83. The task force has reordered and slightly developed the list of criteria in light of lessons from their application and recommends their approval, as they appear in annex II. 84. The task force recommends that a dialogue continue with partners of the African Peer Review Mechanism (APRM), the ECA/OECD-DAC Mutual Review of Development Effectiveness (MRDE), the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness, and the Cotonou Partnership Agreement between ACP countries and the EU. It further recommends (a) a second round of technical missions for the Cotonou Partnership Agreement and the APRM; (b) participation, subject to an invitation, at the third High Level Forum on Aid Effectiveness at Accra in September 2008; and (c) providing input as appropriate to MRDE 2. 85. For phase II, the task force recommends devoting attention to the region of Latin America and the Caribbean, and to expand thematically under MDG 8 to the issues of essential medicines (Target 17), debt relief (Targets 13 and 15), and trading and financial systems (Target 12): (a) The task force proposes to examine the role of key multilateral and public-private initiatives in implementing Target 17 relating to access to affordable essential drugs in developing countries. This dialogue would involve partnerships focused on procurement and pricing as well as on trade-related aspects of intellectual property protection in the WTO and bilateral and regional free trade agreements involving relevant institutions; (b) The task force therefore recommends to the Working Group that it encourage the task force to explore with WHO and relevant institutions identified, the possibilities of organizing a working session or other suitable method to collect information on the application of the right to development criteria to Target 17 with a view to identifying the strengths and weaknesses of various approaches to advancing this target, benefiting from the draft Guidelines of the Special Rapporteur on the right of everyone to the enjoyment of the highest attainable standard of physical and mental heath; 27 In particular, see article 17 and chapter VII of the revised OAS Charter which includes references to the right to development and integral development.
