A/72/171 45. The draft declaration foregrounds and builds on the elements of international law that have already laid the groundwork for revitalizing the global partnership for sustainable development. Notably, it draws on, and contributes to, the global effort against climate change, recognizing the importance of the concept of common but differentiated responsibilities both for and beyond that struggle. 46. Beyond international cooperation, the right to international solidarity requires the deployment of preventive solidarity aimed at proactively preventing and removing the root causes of inequalities between developed and developing countries and the structural obstacles that generate poverty worldwide and at creating an overarching enabling environment in which all human rights can be progressively realized. Such deployment would make it possible to realize the commitment contained in the 2030 Agenda to strengthening the voice and participation of developing countries in international decision -making, norm-setting and global governance (ibid., para. 44). 47. Preventive solidarity, a constituent element of international solidarity, is essential in achieving both intergenerational and intragenerational solidarity and is a vital component of the duty of States to provide and seek international cooperation and assistance in the implementation of their human rights obligations. 48. The draft declaration recognizes that, with regard to the implementation of their foreign policy and their bilateral, regional and international agreements and partnerships, States are accountable for the actions of the international organizations of which they are members, in conformity with their international human rights obligations. That recognition not only encompasses the acknowledgment underlined in the 2030 Agenda of the important role and comparative advantage of an adequately resourced, relevant, coherent, efficient and effective United Nations system in supporting the achievement of the Sustainable Development Goals (ibid., para. 46), but also goes beyond it in calling upon States to recognize and fulfil their extraterritorial human rights obligations in all aspects of their foreign policy, including in their efforts to achieve the Goals. 49. Importantly, the draft declaration provides an understanding of international solidarity that goes well beyond relationships between States. The holders of the right to international solidarity are individuals and peoples, and the duty bearers mainly States, but also some non-State actors (A/HRC/35/35, annex, arts. 5-6). That notion reflects the understanding that a global partnership for human rights and sustainable development must truly be global, not merely international, incorporating the efforts of many stakeholders at all levels and fundamenta lly driven by the will of the people. 50. Fundamentally, the draft declaration is an embodiment of the requirement contained in article 28 of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights that States create a social and international order in which all human rights and fundamental freedoms can be realized. A revitalized global partnership for sustainable development is an important component of such an order, one that would enable greater equity at all levels and would seek to give States the tools and resource s that they need for the realization of human rights. 2. Finance 51. In recognition of the key role that resources play in sustainable development, the first five targets of Sustainable Development Goal 17 are concerned with finance. They call for strengthened domestic resource mobilization, including through international support; full implementation of official development assistance (ODA) commitments; mobilization of additional financial resources for developing countries; assistance to developing countries in attaining long-term debt 17-12217 9/13
