Conclusions and recommendations
47.
The active outreach, advocacy and awareness-raising conducted by the Office
of the High Commissioner on the right to development has contributed to growing
engagement by educational institutions, non-governmental organizations and youth
groups, including through the organization of independent events promoting creative
dialogue. In going forward, OHCHR will continue its efforts to enable, nurture and
support the free, active and meaningful participation of civil society and youth for the
right to development. It will continue to lead in sustained, progressive and
incremental steps to promote and protect the realization of the right to development.
48.
The right to development should be central to the post-2015 development
agenda. According to article 1 of the Declaration on the Right to Development, the
right to development is an inalienable human right by virtue of which every human
person and all peoples are entitled to participate in, contribute to and enjoy economic,
social, cultural and political development, in which all human rights and fundamental
freedoms can be fully realized.
49.
The right to development provides substance for the guarantee enshrined in the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights of a social and international order in which
all human rights can be fully realized. The post-2015 development agenda will
therefore need to aim at building a new, more equitable and sustainable national and
international order, firmly based on the foundation of human rights, including the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the Declaration on the Right to
Development.
