A/HRC/14/37 standards for fair trial. Amnesty International reiterated its call for increased transparency in the reform process, noting that this should include, for example, measures to ensure the participation of civil society, including indigenous peoples in consultations on proposals for a parallel indigenous jurisdiction. While acknowledging the measures highlighted in the national report regarding the exhumation of victims of enforced disappearances, Amnesty International encouraged the Government to make archives dating back to the period of military and authoritarian rule available. Lastly, it urged the Government to ensure that free, prior and informed consent of indigenous peoples was sought in relation to reforms that affected them. 387. Mouvement contre le racisme et l’amitié entre les peuples, in a joint statement with France Libertés and International Educational Development, noted that the first universal periodic review of Bolivia (Plurinational State of) had allowed them to become acquainted with the internal and external difficulties that the Government faced. With the adoption of the new Constitution, the national plan of action for human rights and the national development plan, Bolivia had entered a small group of countries which had put human rights at the heart of policy and Government action. Mouvement contre le racisme et l’amitié entre les peuples highlighted the organization of the Cochabamba conference following the failure of the United Nations Conference on Climate Change in Copenhagen, and noted that successes already achieved in several areas, such as the integration of indigenous peoples, minorities, women, education, health, nutrition, justice and the distribution of income from the national resources exploitation must encourage Bolivia to pursue these efforts. These successes should also encourage neighbouring countries to accompany these efforts rather than to undermine them. 388. The Indian Movement Tupaj Amaru noted that, following the taking of office by a party headed by a president of indigenous origin, the working class and the indigenous peoples had placed too many hopes in national liberation. In the period 2006–2008, GNP exceeded the 5 per cent per annual average, but the result of this economic growth had not been seen in everyday life. According to some non-governmental organizations, the extremely poor still account for 61 per cent of the rural population. In urban centres, poverty and begging were constantly on the rise. According to the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights, more than 600 indigenous families from the Guarani people still lived and worked in slavery conditions, and were subjected to servitude relationships, which showed that the first indigenous president did not have enough power to end the slave enclaves in place in territories controlled by the political opposition elite, which governs in the regions. 389. Conectas Direitos Humanos and Coalicion de Mujeres de Bolivia welcomed the acceptance of recommendations relating to the rights of women and expressed appreciation for the progress made. With regard to the Bono Juana Azurduy concerning the reduction of maternal mortality, these measures should be accompanied by education and information policies in decision-making on reproduction. Concerning political participation, knowing that the National Assembly was dealing with the electoral regime, it was important to guarantee the effective participation of women. With regard to access to justice, there was concern that the rights of women in the regular legal system and in rural justice were not respected. Compliance with all rights of women and recommendations made during the universal periodic review would not be possible without drawing up budgets that are gender-based to assign more resources at the local, departmental and national levels to respond to demands from women’s organizations and urgent and effective attention to cases of violence against women. 390. Action Canada for Population and Development conveyed the comments of a coalition of 67 national human rights organizations. It stated that the accepted recommendations, as well as the voluntary pledges and commitments made by the State, GE.12-17781 107
