Ongoing tensions in relation to democratic and civic space are noted and issues expressed in previous reports remain unresolved. The Special Rapporteur welcomes the fact that Cambodia has adopted a framework for its Sustainable Development Goals, although she notes that the Cambodian Goals do not reflect some important human rights aspects of the Sustainable Development Goals. In the present report she focuses in particular on accountability, leaving no one behind and participation, which are crosscutting themes of relevance when examining the Sustainable Development Goals from a human rights perspective. * The present report was submitted late owing to a technical error in the submission process.
