A/HRC/19/60/Add.1 to attend religious instruction or religious practices against their will or that of their parents; (e) To critically review existing regulations concerning official ceremonies in the police, the military and other State institutions with a view to ensure that no member of those institutions is urged, de jure or de facto, to attend religious practices against his or her will; (f) To pay more systematic attention to the structural vulnerability of members of indigenous communities, especially in rural areas. Even though freedom of religion or belief naturally includes the freedom to engage in missionary activities, the Government should ensure – by means of clarification, mediation, judicial redress and other appropriate measures – that indigenous individuals are not pressured to attend religious ceremonies or to otherwise engage in religious activities as a de facto precondition for job opportunities or for receiving important material benefits; (g) To continue to recognize the right to conscientious objection in law and in practice; this includes the independent functioning of the newly established National Council on Conscientious Objection, ensuring fair and transparent procedures while maintaining non-punitive principles for alternative non-military civilian service. 65. The Special Rapporteur appreciates the initiation of the Human Rights National Plan of Action and of the National Plan of Action on Human Rights Education. In general, national plans of action provide an excellent opportunity to bring together all interested stakeholders with a view to critically identifying common objectives and existing deficiencies, as well as strengthening implementation mechanisms. This will also provide space for discussing issues related to the freedom of religion or belief. Obviously, there is still much room for improvement with regard to more effective implementation of human rights, particularly in terms of nondiscrimination. At the same time, the openness witnessed by the Special Rapporteur at both the governmental and social levels induces him to believe that the national plans of action will prove a success. 19
