Summary: Details current interpretations of the scope and content of MAR obligation by examining the views of UN treaty bodies and special procedures. Analyzes MAR obligation as it relates to resource mobilization in the context of human rights and sustainable development goals (SDGs) established by the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development with a particular focus on SDG 1, on poverty eradication; SDG 16, on peace and justice; SDG 17, on means of implementation and global partnership.
