A/HRC/53/60 mechanisms during the fulfilment of her mandate. She considers the Committee’s concluding observations and the outcomes of its early warning and urgent procedures process to be vital tools in support of her role in monitoring the situation of racial discrimination globally. 34. The Special Rapporteur would also like to express her commitment to working with other mechanisms working on issues of racism and racial discrimination. She recognizes the long-standing history of cooperation between previous mandate holders and the Working Group of Experts on People of African Descent. The Special Rapporteur thanks the Working Group for this cooperation and stresses her commitment to continuing to work together. 35. The Special Rapporteur welcomes the establishment by the Human Rights Council in 2021 of the International Independent Expert Mechanism to Advance Racial Justice and Equality in Law Enforcement, pursuant to its resolution 47/21. She appreciates the reference within the resolution to the need for close cooperation with the Special Rapporteur and thanks the Expert Mechanism for its collaboration to date. The Special Rapporteur also welcomes the establishment by the General Assembly in 2021 of the Permanent Forum on People of African Descent. She thanks the Permanent Forum for its invitation to its first and second sessions. The Special Rapporteur attended the inaugural session of the Permanent Forum in Geneva in December 2022 and intends to attend the second session in New York in June 2023. She expresses her commitment to ongoing cooperation with all members of the Permanent Forum. 36. Given the fundamentality of the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action to the mandate of the Special Rapporteur and the references in Human Rights Council resolution 52/36 to follow-up in the implementation of that mandate, the Special Rapporteur welcomes opportunities to collaborate with the mechanisms established to follow up on the implementation of the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action. These include the Intergovernmental Working Group on the Effective Implementation of the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action, the Group of Independent Eminent Experts on the Implementation of the Durban Declaration and Programme of Action and the Ad Hoc Committee of the Human Rights Council on the Elaboration of Complementary Standards to the International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of Racial Discrimination. 37. Alongside her commitment to cooperation and collaboration with each mechanism, the Special Rapporteur is dedicated to supporting effective coordination among all such mechanisms as components of the United Nations racial justice architecture. While fully respecting the independent nature of all the mechanisms, she is of the view that coordination and collaboration among the mechanisms can help to ensure their maximum impact on the lived experiences of those subjected to racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance. 38. The Special Rapporteur would also like to highlight her commitment to collaboration with other special procedure mandate holders. The Special Rapporteur interprets her mandate as having significant complementarity with many special procedure mandates, including those of the Special Rapporteur on the human rights of migrants, the Special Rapporteur on minority issues, the Special Rapporteur on extrajudicial, summary or arbitrary executions, the Special Rapporteur on the rights of Indigenous Peoples, the Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of human rights and fundamental freedoms while countering terrorism, the Independent Expert on protection against violence and discrimination based on sexual orientation and gender identity, the Special Rapporteur on freedom of religion or belief, the Special Rapporteur on the promotion and protection of the right to freedom of opinion and expression, the Special Rapporteur in the field of cultural rights and the Working Group on the issue of human rights and transnational corporations and other business enterprises. She thanks the mandate holders for their historical cooperation with the previous holders of her mandate and expresses her commitment to continuing that cooperation, including in the preparation and transmission of joint communications to Member States on alleged violations of human rights relating to the material scope of her mandate. 39. In addition, the Special Rapporteur is committed to working collaboratively with Member States and recalls the relevant text in the most recent resolution renewing her mandate, calling upon States to fully cooperate with the Special Rapporteur in the discharge GE.23-09089 9
