"Mr President, when assessing the outcome of the Rio+20 conference on sustainable development, there is not much place for optimism. It is more than clear that the austerity measures implied by the current economic crisis are being matched by a recession in human rights and ambitious environmental policies.
The outcome document does recognise the importance of the green economy and stresses a number of vital issues, such as the need to improve gender equality and engage civil society. However, the overall commitments are worryingly minimal and disappointing, not least in terms of lacking a timeframe for the implementation of the objectives. In this respect, the outcome document can hardly be seen as an instrument for the achievement of a green and socially inclusive economy and for growth.
Moreover, it is highly regrettable that while the participating countries recognise the need to integrate reproductive health into national strategies, the language of reproductive rights was not expressed in the outcome document. In short, there is some limited added value in the 700-plus commitments voiced at the conference, but they do not translate into a concrete action plan."@en1
