A/HRC/33/59 PP8 – ask clarification on “agroecological approaches”, with the source where this is taken from. PP10 – we appreciate the spirit of this paragraph. Much in line with the comment made about PP6; the issue is wider than specifically the risks for human rights defenders working on land and natural resources issues. We would therefore prefer if the para could begin with a general reference on the risks for human rights defenders in general before paying specific attention to HR defenders working on land and natural resources issues. PP15 – is an example of the comment we made earlier in the general statement on singling out selective parts of the covenants; freedom of association applies to peasants, but so does the whole International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and so do the other instruments. Would it not make a lot more sense to state clearly that that is the case and then focus specifically on those elements where more work on implementation is needed?

Paragraph 2 of Article 27 should begin with the addition of: “Peasants and other people working in rural areas have the right to be protected against unlawful eviction from home and as well as against harassment and other threats.” Preamble PP10. Include a reference to the Declaration on the Right to Development PP16. Include at the end “with respect to the territorial integrity of state”. United States PP2 & PP14. Please replace the term “food sovereignty” with “food security” PP3 – Please provide clarification on the phrase “should be provided with the means…” PP7 – What is meant by the term “tenure rights” in the context of an international document? PP13. This implies that treaties to which many countries are not party represent the minimum rights under international law. Only if a principle has attained the status of customary international law (principle against torture) or is jus cogens (like genocide or war crimes) can it bind states legally – if a state is not a party to a treaty that so provides.
