Accountability key to achieving sustainable development goal

Accountability key to achieving sustainable development goals, UN human rights experts stress

GENEVA (26 JANUARY 2015 ) The post-2015 sustainable development goals currently being debated by the international community must be anchored firmly in international human rights standards and backed by strong means of ensuring accountability for meeting them, leading UN human rights experts have stressed.

We welcome the emphasis placed on accountability and call for this to be strengthened, the Chairpersons of the 10 Treaty Bodies, the expert committees that oversee implementation by States of the core international human rights treaties, said in a statement.

Their call was issued as UN Member States started discussions to finalise the draft set of 17 sustainable development goals (SDGs) that will frame agendas and policies over the next 15 years, and which will be put forward for adoption by Heads of State at a UN Summit in New York in September 2015.

The Chairpersons urge Member States to reinforce the alignment of the SDGs with human rights. Their concrete recommendations include strengthening the reference to protecting fundamental freedoms (Goal 16, target 16.10) by explicitly referring to freedoms of expression, association and peaceful assembly.

The Chairpersons statement stresses that there should be reliable and validated means of measuring progress in meeting development goals, based on disaggregated data. In addition, progress should also be measured in terms of how fundamental rights and freedoms are being protected.

UN Secretary-General Ban Ki-moon has called for there to be a robust and participatory monitoring and review framework for the SDGs at the national, regional and global level, said Malcolm Evans, Chairperson of the Subcommittee on the Prevention of Torture and current head of the Treaty Body Chairpersons group. We strongly support this and urge Member States to build upon the principles and inclusive working methods of the Treaty Bodies, as well as other existing human rights mechanisms such as the Universal Periodic Review.

The statement also highlights the important role to be played by the private sector in achieving the SDGs, and the importance of ensuring private sector accountability.

The work of the Treaty Bodies regarding corporate sector accountability is highly relevant here. For example, the Committee on the Rights of the Child and the Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights have issued guidance regarding the impact and obligations of business, said Mr Evans.

Future Business Trends in Biking to be Addressed by Futurist Jack Uldrich

Posted: at 4:40 am

Phoenix, AZ (PRWEB) January 28, 2015

Charles M. Schulz, author of the Peanuts cartoon, once famously said, "Life is like a ten speed bicycle. Most of us have gears we never use." "Nothing could be more true in today's world where our metaphorical gears are increasing at warp speed," says futurist Jack Uldrich. Uldrich will be addressing the Independent Bike Dealers (IBD) Summit, in Tempe, Arizona on Thursday, January 29th with his keynote address, "Business as Unusual" which will focus on how the IBD can start future-proofing their businesses against the trends of tomorrow.

Highly acclaimed speaker and best selling author Jack Uldrich travels the world addressing a wide variety of organizations from telecommunications to healthcare, manufacturing to education. His message is clear: The future is predictably unpredictable. And the way to prepare for it is by embracing the paradox of seeing your own ignorance as the path to wisdom.

From the League of Innovation to Pfizer and Verizon, Uldrich addresses the top business trends affecting all of these industries. In one of his latest blog posts he covers the top ten technological trends that will transform the world in 2015. When it comes to the IBD, Uldrich says the trends in nanotechnology, manufacturing and 3D printing will in all likelihood have the most impact.

While the need for speed may be the goal some consumers have in mind when it comes to cycling, others are looking at the quality of the bikes themselves with the materials that are light and long lasting. Others simply want to know that the simple joys of biking won't be undone by the technological advances. In other words, that the gears beyond 10 won't complicate life so much that getting out on the trail or road will inhibit the joys of a good ride.

In addressing organizations like The Entrepreneurs Organization and IBD, Uldrich aims to inform these innovative business people of the trends that are coming their way and to encourage them to embrace his acronym of AHA---Awareness, Humility and Action---as fundamental tools that will guide them through the technological tides of change. "While technology may be changing at warp speed, good business sense is firmly rooted in these principles of the past. The paradox of embracing both is crucial to an independent dealer's success."

Parties interested in learning more about Jack, his books, his daily blog or his speaking availability are encouraged to visit his website. Media wishing to know more about this specific event or those interested in scheduling an interview with Jack can contact Amy Tomczyk at (651) 343.0660.
