69. When recognized for what it is outside of political rhetoric and
considerations, the draft declaration on the right to international solidarity
must be fully considered as crucial to addressing both the impacts of presentday global challenges, including the refugee and migration crises and the
unabated horrors of terrorism and trafficking in persons. Notably, the draft
declaration would anchor global partnerships in which international
commitments would be nurtured and advanced. It would thus be instrumental
to the successful completion of the 2030 Agenda.
70. As States seek to revitalize the global partnership for sustainable
development, they must ground that partnership in human rights law and in
respect for human rights principles, in particular equality, non-discrimination,
participation, accountability, transparency, attention to marginalized and
disadvantaged groups and the rule of law. In setting out a vision for a truly
human rights-based approach to collective action at all levels, the draft
declaration provides a basis for a partnership that is truly global and
development that is truly sustainable.
