A/HRC/24/38 it. Because of this, we call for a mass mobilisation to stop the landgrab and support local peasants struggles. Against violence against women, often conducted in militarily occupied territories, but also violence affecting women who are criminalised for taking part in social struggles. We fight against domestic and sexual violence perpetrated on women because they are considered objects or goods, because the sovereignty of their bodies and minds is not acknowledged. We fight against the traffic of women, girls and boys. For peace and against war, colonialism, occupations and the militarisation of our lands. We denounce the false discourse of human rights defence and fight against fundamentalism, that often justifies military occupations such as in Haiti, Líbia, Mali and Syria. We defend the right to people’s sovereignty and self-determination such as in Palestine, Western Sahara and Kurdistan. We denounce the installation of foreign military bases to instigate conflicts, to control and ransack natural resources, and to foster dictatorships in several countries. Universal Declaration for the Common Good of Humanity (excerpts)9 IX. Article 7 (To promote dignified and non-exploitative labor) Processes of production and circulation should ensure workers a dignified, participatory job that is adaptive to family and cultural life,that fosters their skills and ensures them an adequate material existence. All modern forms of slavery, servitude and labor exploitation, especially of children, for the purposes of individual profit or private accumulation of surplus value as well as limitations on labor organizing are inconsistent with the Common Good of Humanity and Good Life (Buen Vivir) and are therefore prohibited. Article 8 (To reconstruct territories) Facing “globalization” which has favored a unipolar economy, the concentration of decision-making powers, the hegemony of financial capital and the irrational circulation of goods and services, it is indispensible to reconstruct territories as a base for food, energetic sovereignty and for the main exchanges, to regionalize economies and base them on principles of complementarity and solidarity; and for the peripheral regions, to “disconnect” from the hegemonic economic center, in order to assure commercial, financial and productive autonomy. The constitution of monopolies and oligopolies, whatever their area of productive or financial activity is, is inconsistent with the Common Good of Humanity and are therefore prohibited. Article 9 (To guarantee access to common goods and universal social protection) There are certain common goods that are indispensible for the collective life of individuals and peoples and that constitute inalienable rights. These are: food, housing, health, education, and material and immaterial communication. Various forms of citizen control or social property exist for the effective organization of access to these goods. “Universal protection” is a right of all peoples and individuals, a responsibility of public authorities that should be assured by an adequate fiscal policy. The privatization of public services in order to contribute to capital accumulation is inconsistent with the Common Good of Humanity and is therefore prohibited. The following are susceptible for sanctions: 9 http://www.especieenpeligro.cult.cu/index.php/debates-y-alternativas/articulos/1521-universaldeclaration-for-the 35
