A/HRC/7/32 page 14 79. The NGO Committee for Social Development noted that broader environmental rights are not fully highlighted. The Committee also indicated that no special mention is made of the commoditization of water and contamination of natural resources due to actions of private enterprises and States. H. Right to housing 80. The Government of Belgium expressed the view that States should be free to determine priorities for their poverty eradication policies based on the situation at hand, rather than having a responsibility to place special emphasis on housing policy, as suggested in paragraph 33. 81. The Government of Georgia noted that it would be more appropriate for States to play a facilitating role in promoting access of the poor to housing than to be obligated to guarantee such access, as called for in paragraph 32. The present wording of the paragraph would encourage the poor to take for granted the provision of housing and could not be practically implemented in countries with a weak or transition economy. 82. The Government of the Philippines suggested that the right to housing be construed in the context of security of tenure instead of ownership. 83. The International Federation of Social Workers suggested taking out the word “dignified” in the first sentence of paragraph 31, or finding a different wording to express the idea that the right to housing is universal and that States should make efforts to ensure that minimum safety and health norms are maintained for occupants living in extreme poverty. 84. The South African Human Rights Commission suggested that paragraph 32 of the draft guiding principles pay particular attention to gender-based mistreatment. 85. Care International suggested that the draft guiding principles should stipulate that States have a duty to undertake legislative and administrative reforms to ensure women’s rights to inheritance and to ownership of land as key prerequisites to the eradication of poverty, and recommended using the word “priority” instead of “emphasis” in paragraph 33. I. Right to education and culture 86. The Government of Belgium noted that the draft guiding principles do not have specific provisions addressing “youth” and “sport” as important building blocks for facilitating the integration and participation of the poor. 87. The Government of the Philippines stated that the definition of culture as “special programmes affording access to culture, instruction, reading, art and literature” is quite limited. It would be more encompassing and beneficial if culture could be framed by considering the human rights context of culture as espoused by the 2004 United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) Human Development Report. The Human Development Report 2004 contextualized cultural liberty in the following terms: “The freedom people have to choose their identity - to be who they are and who they want to be - and to live without being excluded from other choices that are important for them. Cultural liberty is violated by the failure to respect and recognize values, institutions, and ways of life of cultural groups and discrimination and disadvantage based on cultural identity.” (HDR 2004, p. 27).
