technical assistance so as to ensure that boys and girls of all regions of the
country have access to free and compulsory primary education (Mexico);
79.60. Ensure that education is accessible to all children, including by

79.61. Consider the possibility of ensuring free and compulsory education, at
least at the primary level (Algeria);
79.62. Guarantee universal basic education, in accordance with the
international human rights treaties it has ratified, and ensure that primary
education is compulsory and free for all (Indonesia);
79.63. Ensure compulsory, free and accessible primary education for all.
Enhance also the availability and accessibility of secondary and higher

79.64. Ensure that primary education is free and compulsory and prioritize
the accessibility of secondary education, making it progressively free in

order to promote environmental protection (Norway);

their traditional agricultural lands and, on the other hand, it contributes
enormously to the ecosystem’s imbalance and accelerates climate change with
the negative consequences it brings (Holy See);
79.69. Review the 2010 amendment to the Environment Act in order to ensure
consistency with the objectives of the United Nations Declaration on the Rights
of Indigenous Peoples (Norway).
