A/69/302 59. The goal needs to ensure that all migrants and members of their families, irrespective of their status, have equal access to adequate, affordable, accessible and quality health care, including mental health care. 19 Targets and indicators 60. The goal should include a specific target on reducing barriers to universal access to health and ensuring a balanced distribution of the human and financial costs of care. 5 Indicators can focus on: (a) Number of countries that have developed national health legislation, policies, plans and programmes to promote universal health coverage for all, including migrants, irrespective of their status and circumstances; (b) Proportion of migrants with equal access to adequate, affordable, accessible and quality health care, including essential drugs, irrespective of their status and circumstances, on a sustainable basis; 20 (c) Number of countries that have eliminated discriminatory practices and barriers, including detention or deportation on the basis of the health conditions of migrants. 5 61. Under a target of ending AIDS, tuberculosis, malaria and neglected tropical diseases, health indicators should be designed to measure the effectiveness of prevention, treatment and support measures in favour of migrants. 6. Ensure inclusive and equitable quality education and promote lifelong learning opportunities for all 62. According to article 13 of the International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights, the right to education is a universal right. As recognized by Committee on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights in its general comment No. 13, education is the “primary vehicle by which economically and socially marginalized adults and children can lift themselves out of poverty and obtain the means to participate fully in their communities”. The Committee on the Elimination of Racial Discrimination, in its general recommendation No. 30, has highlighted the need for States to ensure that all migrant children, irrespective of their status, have access to public educational institutions. The Committee on the Rights of the Child, in its general comment No. 9, endorsed the concept of inclusive education as “a set of values, principles and practices that seeks meaningful, effective, and quality education for all students, that does justice to the diversity of learning conditions and requirements not only of children with disabilities, but for all students”. 63. A goal on education should be formulated to ensure equal access to education at all levels, for all, including marginalized groups, such as migrants, and with a focus on: (a) Ensuring that the education provided is inclusive, reflecting a commitment to creating learning environments adapted to include every child without discrimination; __________________ 19 20 14/26 See General Assembly resolution 68/4.
