A/HRC/39/67 CSRC Including women’s rights to “productive resources” including natural resources, financial resources — banking, credit loan, social resources — education, skills, information, health care, energy, technology, and political participation in all decision making processes. Mr. Chairman, I would like to draw your attention in following points; 1. We further ask the WG to Recognise women’s rights to Private property — including inheritance of agricultural land, house, etc. whether under secular or under customary/personal law. So I would like to take your attention to add (k.) “to promote inheritance in housing and agriculture land of women and men” 2. Ensure rural Women rights to Public resources — including land redistribution, joint land leasing, common property resources (for water, fuel, grazing, forests, street markets, etc.), public services for water, energy, and food security, all kinds of social protection measures, infrastructure and market access, technological resources and training. 3. Ensure rural women can acquire assets including Property and other resources in the market. Remove all direct and indirect obstacles including bureaucratic administrative process. Article 5 EU Title: Right Access to natural resources 1. Peasants and other people persons working in rural areas have the right to have access to and to use in a sustainable manner and in line with the pertinent requirements set out in environment protection legislations, the natural resources present in their communities that are required to enjoy adequate living conditions. They have the right to participate in the management of these resources and to enjoy in a fair and equitable way the benefits of their development and conservation in their communities. 2.

Brazil We consider that there is a need to improve the text of Article 5, paragraphs 2 and 2(a). Those paragraphs seem to link any kind of exploitation of natural resources, including those by peasants, to a social and environmental impact assessment analysis. We consider that not necessarily all traditional practices of peasants and traditional communities have to be submitted to a social and environmental impact assessment. In addition, we are concerned that the expression “independent entities” in paragraph 2 (a) lacks definition. In the case of Brazil, this would mean: the Brazilian Institute of Environment and Renewable Natural Resources (IBAMA), which is an independent public agency in charge of environmental impact assessments in protected areas, including those occupied by traditional communities. In this context, and in line with article 14, paragraph 1 (a) of the Convention on Biological Diversity, which is, we believe, one of the sources of article 5 of this draft Declaration, we would propose the following edits in paragraph 2: 31
