A/HRC/32/43 B. Comments and recommendations of a general nature on the proposed draft declaration 43. The following are highlights summarized from the comments and recommendations of a general nature, in particular those which should be included in the text of the proposed draft declaration: (a) It was once again suggested to take full advantage of the new 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda, especially goal 17, to advocate for the relevance of the proposed draft declaration. Specific mention should be made of the importance of international solidarity in addressing violence, extremism and terrorism. The need to address the roots of those problems to sustain world peace should be stressed. A proposal was made that a reference to individuals and peoples under occupation should be included and that a specific mention should be made of refugees as being among the rights holders; (b) It was stressed that international solidarity should be understood as the confirmation of the already recognized necessity for a just international order, one that promoted common development for all countries, based on sustainability, taking into account the needs, capacities and interests of each region and country, with common but differentiated responsibilities; (c) The title “right of peoples and individuals to international solidarity” was said to be more appropriate than the proposal to change it to “the right to international solidarity”. As a human right for all, international solidarity would establish responsibilities not only for States, but also for international organizations, peoples, individuals, civil society and the private sector; (d) It was said that the promotion of international solidarity must be carried out by States and non-governmental organizations, principally through human rights education and the recognition of the right to international solidarity as a fundamental human right. The right to information on global actions and commitments was a shared responsibility of state and non-state actors, which in turn led to the accountability of States, including not only their actions within their own national boundaries but also their foreign actions and the actions of international organizations of which they were a member; (e) The preamble should serve to explain the gains to be made by developing a right to international solidarity, including its potential impact on the realization of human rights. In that context, it was important to refer in the second paragraph of the preamble to the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, as well as the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights; (f) International humanitarian law should be included in the proposed draft declaration. There was a need for the draft to cover all common global concerns, including security concerns, in addition to economic, social and cultural rights; (g) The principle of common but differentiated responsibility should be used to clearly define international solidarity. International solidarity could be part of a fourth generation of rights calling for a new international order; (h) Any collective action undertaken for the sake of international solidarity should advance the principles within the bounds of the Charter of the United Nations. The proposed draft declaration should explicitly state that international solidarity cannot be invoked and utilized in any way or by any actor to undermine human rights or to breach international human rights treaties; (i) The principles of business and human rights should be reflected in the draft text and be linked to the responsibilities of private actors; 17
