In October 2013, OHCHR made a presentation at a training course organized by the United Nations Conference on Trade and Development in Bosnia for economies in transition on a new generation of international investment policies. The presentation focused on the human rights impact of trade and investment agreements. In November 2013, OHCHR organized jointly with the United Nations Development Programme and Transparency International, and in cooperation with Austria, Morocco and Poland, a side event on the human rights case against corruption during the fifth session of the Conference of the States Parties to the United Nations Convention against Corruption in Panama. The event concluded, inter alia, that effective anti-corruption efforts are essential to the creation of an enabling environment for development at both the national and international levels, as envisaged in the Declaration on the Right to Development. Also in November, OHCHR provided a briefing on the right to development to some 50 European Union staff members in charge of human rights within the European Commission and the European External Action Service. The briefing covered the broad mandate of the High Commissioner with regard to the right to development, and the challenges faced in the implementation of this right. In January 2014, OHCHR delivered a briefing for Commonwealth Member States on the right to development, with a particular focus on the draft right to development criteria and sub-criteria, including entry points, opportunities and technical aspects for Member States to contribute to the revision of the draft criteria and sub-criteria within the Working Group on the Right to Development. 39. In March 2014, the High Commissioner addressed a side event held during the twenty-fifth session of the Human Rights Council on the theme “Africa and the right to development: towards the post-2015 development agenda”, organized by Egypt, the African Union and the National Council for Human Rights of Egypt. Against the backdrop of challenges faced by the continent in achieving sustainable and inclusive development, including inequitable and exploitative economic arrangements, poverty, inequalities and vulnerabilities, discrimination, conflict and disproportionate effects of climate change, participants in the event stressed in their presentations and discussions the need to place the right to development at the centre of the post-2015 agenda and sustainable development goals. The High Commissioner called for a new agenda aligned with the human rights framework, with the right to development at its centre, underpinned by a strong accountability framework of goals, targets and indicators. She advocated a new social and international order strengthened by the right to development to address systemic failures, structural injustices and responsibility gaps in global governance, and a genuine global partnership for development. 40.
