CDH 60: Declaración de SRI en el diálogo interactivo con el Experto Independiente sobre las personas de edad

Aunque el informe aborda la interseccionalidad, lamentamos que omite mencionar a las trabajadoras sexuales, quienes son sistemáticamente excluidas del sistema de protección social debido a la criminalización, el estigma y la falta de reconocimiento legal de su trabajo. Esta exclusión resulta en una falta total de acceso a pensiones, seguro médico o apoyo económico, una situación que se siente con mayor intensidad en la vejez.

HRC 60: Joint Statement to the Interactive Dialogue with the Working Group on arbitrary detention

We remain deeply concerned about the mass incarceration of Indigenous peoples, particularly Indigenous women and gender-diverse individuals. While Indigenous people make up only 5 percent of the Canadian population, they represent 32 percent of those in federal custody and half of all federally incarcerated women. This reflects the ongoing impacts of colonialism, systemic discrimination, and trauma.

HRC 60: SRI Statement to the Interactive dialogue with the Special Rapporteur on toxics and human rights

We particularly appreciate the reference to the impact of toxic substances on the health of women, adolescents, and girls. Exposure to toxic substances is not limited to working conditions but also includes components of food and plastics, environmental degradation, and fumigation with agrochemicals. The impact of toxic substances on women's reproductive health is a matter of reproductive justice and includes an increase in caregiving tasks, which already fall disproportionately on women.

CDH 60: Declaración de SRI en el diálogo interactivo con el Relator Especial sobre sustancias tóxicas y derechos humanos

Valoramos especialmente la referencia al impacto de los tóxicos sobre la salud de las mujeres, las adolescentes y las niñas. La exposición a tóxicos no se limita a las condiciones laborales sino también a componentes de los alimentos y los plásticos, a la degradación ambiental y a la fumigación con agrotóxicos. El impacto de los tóxicos sobre la salud reproductiva de las mujeres es una cuestión de justicia reproductiva, e incluyen el aumento de las tareas de cuidado, que ya recaen desproporcionadamente sobre las mujeres.

HRC 60: Joint Statement to the Panel discussion on combating discrimination, violence and harmful practices against intersex persons

Member States must enact laws to prevent harmful practices in medical settings, and to ensure their victims have access to support, truth and reparations. Member States must support intersex-led organizations to provide psychosocial and healthcare services to their communities, and to keep engaging with human rights work.

HRC 60: Joint Statement to Interactive Dialogue with the Special Rapporteur on Right to Development (2)

The false divide between development and gender equality has been weaponized to undermine hard-won progress in gender equality and human rights, threatening the foundations of inclusive, rights-based development, with disproportionate impact on women, girls, and persons with diverse sexual orientation, gender identity and expression, and sex characteristics (SOGIESC).

HRC 60: Joint Statement to Interactive Dialogue with the Special Rapporteur on Right to Development

The report falls short in recognizing that sex workers are disproportionately affected by discrimination. Although the report points out discrimination based on socioeconomic status, it is necessary to directly address the discrimination against people engaged in sex work to help increase its visibility and acceptance of the existence of the problem. We stress that consensual adult sex work is work. To realise the right to development, States should fully decriminalise sex work, recognise labour rights and ensure active, free and meaningful participation in decision making as a key element to the right to development and to achieving the SDG 5.

HRC 60: Joint Statement to the Interactive dialogue with the Expert Mechanism on the right to development

A solid people-centered approach to the right to development must challenge the dominant global economic paradigm and definition of economic growth, prioritise resource distribution within and between states. The Expert Mechanisms’ recognition of collective rights and responsibilities and systemic violations of human rights of people subjected to colonialism, as well as insistence upon accountability for international development policies, places them in a unique position to do so.

HRC 60: Declaración de Akãhatã: Diálogo interactivo con el relator especial sobre el derecho al desarrollo

Sin embargo, lamentamos que el informe omita temas clave como la falta de reconocimiento legal de las familias LGBTIQ+ y la consecuente vulneración de su derecho al cuidado, recientemente reconocido como derecho autónomo por la Corte Interamericana, afectando tanto a personas adultas como a sus hijes.
