A/HRC/4/WG.2/TF/2 page 20 B. Recommendations 88. The task force recommends that the criteria be further applied and refined using the reordered list in annex II. It also recommends that more specific elements be considered for the implementation checklist, along the lines of the preliminary suggestions contained in annex III. 89. The task force recommends that a dialogue continue with APRM, the ECA/OECD-DAC Mutual Review of Development Effectiveness and the Paris Declaration on Aid Effectiveness to elaborate on areas of potential congruence and synergy of each respective partnership with the right to development, as well as on existing gaps in light of the criteria. The task force recommends undertaking technical visits to the respective institutions involved, in order to discuss how the integration of the criteria in the work of the partnerships could be effected and to assist the task force in further refining the criteria. 90. In implementing the follow-up work on operationalizing the right-to-development criteria, the task force recommends the continuing active participation of international financial and development institutions, including the World Bank, UNDP, IMF, UNCTAD and WTO, as well as other relevant specialized agencies, funds and programmes of the United Nations. As a high priority, the task force is particularly interested in pursuing cooperation with the World Bank, as well as UNDP with regard to its work on inclusive globalization. 91. With respect to future work on assessing global partnerships, should the Working Group request the task force to continue applying and refining these criteria, the task force recommends that it proceed in several phases. Phase I could cover work in 2007 relating to further specification and elaboration of implementation checklists and follow-up with the three development partnerships considered in the present session, and include one additional partnership. Phase II would cover the task force’s work in 2008 to apply the criteria to a limited number of further partnerships. Finally, phase III would encompass the work done in 2009, consolidating and following up on existing partnerships and possibly considering yet another set of partnerships, leading towards a definitive version of the criteria. 92. The task force recognizes the need to explore additional strategic and representative partnerships in the context of MDG 8. In this regard, the task force recommends that priority be given initially to the Cotonou Partnership Agreement between ACP countries and the EU, and the World Bank’s Africa Action Plan. Scaling up thereafter in accordance with the work in the phases mentioned above, the task force recommends that further additional partnerships be examined in the light of the criteria.
