A/HRC/21/22 meet their human rights obligations to stem resource loss, both financial and human, and to seek international cooperation.49 83. There is increasing recognition of the responsibilities of non-State development partners to ensure that human rights are not violated through their activities. 50 84. Obligations to provide international assistance and cooperation supplement but do not displace obligations of national Governments. 85. All development partners should ensure that their development policies are rights-based, which includes refraining from doing harm to women’s sexual and reproductive health. For example, restrictions in aid, such as on information regarding critical reproductive services or intellectual property regimes that create barriers to accessing essential medicines interfere with Governments’ abilities to realize women’s sexual and reproductive health rights. 51 86. International cooperation should be aimed at strengthening the capacity of national health systems to advance women’s sexual and reproductive health rights. Development partners should refrain from creating a parallel administration to that of the Ministry of Health and/or utilizing systems other than those of the Government. 87. Donor States should protect women’s sexual and reproductive health rights by effectively regulating private actors over which they exercise control.52 These include pharmaceutical companies, commodities and device manufacturers, and other companies that affect the delivery of sexual and reproductive health services abroad. 88. Policy coherence is essential to the global partnership for development. For example, donor States should not invest in strengthening health systems while drawing away, or allow private actors in their jurisdictions to draw away, human resources from them through migration policies.53 Donor States, individually and collectively, should also evaluate trade, economic, fiscal and debt policies for coherence with the advancement of women’s sexual and reproductive health rights. 89. Development partners should ensure predictable, harmonized and transparent economic assistance.54 Agreement should be reached with national Governments on consolidated budget support as well as reporting of “externally funded expenditures”.55 The Creditor Reporting System of the OECD Development Assistance Committee should be improved to capture, in a timely manner, all sexual and reproductive health spending by development partners,56 which should be publicly available and disseminated in accessible formats. 49 50 51 52 53 54 55 56 International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, art. 2.
