A/HRC/24/37 called for financial and technical assistance and capacity-building for developing countries. The United States of America noted its reservation to specific language regarding developing countries, stating that human rights were universal and belonged to those in developing and developed countries alike. The Islamic Republic of Iran, on behalf of the Non-Aligned Movement, referred to the Declaration on the Right to Development, which stated that sustained action was required to promote more rapid development of developing countries. 37. Commenting on the subcriterion on reducing risks of domestic financial crises, Centre Europe – Tiers Monde stated that in the globalized world, there was a hegemony of finance and a concentration of capital in certain entities such as banks and insurance companies, which had a real impact on people’s lives. Concerning the volatility of national commodity prices, Morocco stressed the need to fight against speculation in world markets, specifically when it led to price volatility of agricultural and food products. The United States of America cautioned that policy measures seeking to mitigate price volatility might distort the market, and suggested instead a focus on addressing the impact of price volatility with, for instance, social safety nets. In this context, UNCTAD stated that General Assembly resolution 66/188 of 22 December 2011 addressing excessive price volatility in food and related financial and commodity markets should be taken into account. It also noted that the General Assembly resolution in question commenced by recalling the Universal Declaration of Human Rights. 38. The Working Group also discussed a number of issues such as the transfer of technology, intellectual property rights, biofuels, the digital divide, natural resources, renewable energy, peace and security, and natural disasters in relation to the right to development.
