Minority Rights Group International; Realizing Rights for All: Tackling the Structural Drivers of ESC Rights The 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development seeks ?to realize the human rights of all? and includes far-reaching commitments to address the systemic discrimination faced by women indigenous peoples persons with disability and other marginalized groups in t
he enjoyment of their rights encapsulated in the Agenda?s overarching pledge to ?leave no one behind?. The COVID-19 pandemic and the ensuing economic crisis in its wake have had a disproportionate impact on already disadvantaged populations laying bare the
 structural factors that perpetuate ESC rights disparities. To date these have not been adequately tackled in implementation of the 2030 Agenda due to a persistent lack of policy coherence at national regional and international levels.  This project addres
ses the structural causes of the disparities faced by marginalized groups and their continued exclusion in development efforts in practice. It focuses on key policy trends that have a discriminatory impact on ESC rights namely: inequitable tax policies and
 development financing arrangements; underfunding and commercialization of public services; unsustainable and exclusionary land and natural resources management; climate inaction; and gender-blind energy transition models. It seeks to tackle these trends b
y strengthening the influence of women indigenous peoples minorities persons with disabilities and other marginalized groups in the design and implementation of policies affecting their rights and by supporting them to demand accountability when such polic
ies do not comply with human rights standards and principles thereby entrenching discrimination. This project is led by Minority Rights Group (MRG) the leading international organization working to secure the human rights of minorities and indigenous peopl
es in partnership with the Center for Economic and Social Rights (CESR) and the Global Initiative for Economic Social and Cultural Rights (GI-ESCR) as well as in close collaboration with national and regional partner organizations in 20 countries in Latin 
America North Africa Sub-Saharan Africa Eastern Europe and Central Asia South Asia and South East Asia. It combines each organization?s complementary expertise in tackling discrimination in economic social and cultural rights together with the experience o
f human rights defenders across the globe who are leading struggles for equality and inclusive sustainable development. Hanke käsittelee marginalisaation rakenteellisia syitä ja ulosjääntiä kehitysyhteistyöstä. Hankkeessa keskitytään keskeisiin poliittisiin suuntauksiin joilla vaikuttavat TSS-oikeuksien epätasaiseen toteutumiseen: epäoikeudenmukainen veropolitiik
ka ja kehitysrahoitusjärjestelyt; julkisten palvelujen alirahoitus ja kaupallistaminen; kestämätön ja syrjivä maa- ja luonnonvarojen hallinta; ilmastonmuutoksen torjunnan puute; ja sukupuolisokeat energiansiirtomallit. Hanke haastaa nämä trendit vah
vistamalla naisten alkuperäiskansojen vähemmistöjen vammaisten henkilöiden ja muiden marginalisoitujen ryhmien mahdollisuutta vaikuttaa politiikan suunnitteluun ja toteuttamiseen sekä tukemalla heitä vaatimaan tilivelvollisuutta kun politiikka ei ole
 yhdenmukaista ihmisoikeusnormien ja -periaatteiden kanssa ja on syrjivää. Hankettä vetää Minority Rights Group (MRG) yhdessä the Center for Economic and Social Rights (CESR) ja the Global Initiative for Economic Social and Cultural Rights (GI-ESCR) 
kanssa. Yhteistyötä tehdään läheisesti kansallisten ja alueellisten kumppanijärjesöjen kanssa 20 eri maassa Latinalaisessa Amerikassa Afrikassa Euroopassa ja Aasiassa.
