A/HRC/23/38 organizations have nevertheless emphasized that more community and religious leaders need to be involved in the reconciliation process. 66. The Dialogue, Truth and Reconciliation Commission has informed the Independent Expert that it has created a reliable database that will make it possible to hold public hearings within the next few months. The Commission is also looking into the root causes of the crisis. The Independent Expert is concerned about the fact that the Commission’s mandate will expire in September 2013. 67. The Independent Expert points out that human rights should embrace Ivorian cultural values, which have provided a solid foundation that has kept the Ivorian people from slipping into genocide. There is reportedly a tendency for some religious denominations to preach radical sermons, sometimes discriminating against women, which runs counter to the secular nature of the State of Côte d’Ivoire. 68. The Independent Expert wishes to emphasize the role of children in the reconciliation process, and he agrees with the approach taken by the representative of the United Nations Children’s Fund (UNICEF) in Côte d’Ivoire, who suggested that “play areas could become reconciliation areas”. Schools should be put to use to help rebuild citizenship. 69. The Independent Expert notes the important fact that exiles whose lands have been transferred to newcomers are trying to return. Although the Government has stressed that soldiers and civilians occupying public buildings and property belonging to exiles are being evicted, the Independent Expert regrets that no far-reaching measures have been taken to allow exiles to return their illegally occupied land, particularly in the western parts of the country, and this constitutes a serious infringement of the right to housing and property. The tension between exiles and new occupants negatively impacts community cohesion and the reintegration of exiles into the social life of the country. C. Promotion of economic and social rights 70. Recommendations were also made to Côte d’Ivoire with regard to economic and social development, equality among regions and communities, and measures for women and children, the main victims of the crisis. 71. The Independent Expert believes that the promotion of civil and political rights is closely linked with economic and social rights. In his view, Côte d’Ivoire urgently needs to work to achieve stability and social peace in order to foster a climate conducive to investment and economic and social progress, which is essential for meeting the population’s basic needs. 72. Côte d’Ivoire has shown a growth rate of more than 8 per cent, but this growth has yet to improve the daily lives of the Ivorian people. According to the World Bank representative in Côte d’Ivoire, this runaway growth, which is driven by public investment in large-scale State infrastructure projects, is far from robust. The private sector appears to be ready to invest in the country but is holding back due to the uncertain security situation. The World Bank representative in Côte d’Ivoire said that the unemployment rate is around 49 per cent. According to the United Nations Development Programme, each year more than 30,000 jobs are created in the formal sector, but more than 200,000 new graduates enter the labour market. This situation raises the key issue of young people’s access to employment. 73. Basic social services are still difficult to access. The sustainability and continuity of health services are not guaranteed. The health-care facilities were damaged during political and military clashes after the 2010 elections. The maternal and infant mortality rate is 500 14 GE.13-15028
