A/HRC/42/37/Add.2 communities, to support traditional authorities and communities to further strengthen the use of customary practices for conservation and climate change adaptation. Free, prior and informed consent 91. The Government should further strengthen its awareness of and revise the legal framework to incorporate provisions on free, prior and informed consent, guided by international legal documents elaborating on this principle, and ensure that this principle is respected in all matters. The Environmental Licensing Law, for example, should be revised to explicitly incorporate the principle of free, prior and informed consent. Education and languages 92. The Special Rapporteur recognizes the commitments the Government has made in the field of education. However, she urges further action and additional budget allocations to achieve these commitments in practice, notably by increasing the budget for building schools; providing necessary infrastructure within schools, including educational materials; providing necessary training for teachers, increasing the number of teachers and raising their salaries; and, overall, providing the necessary facilities to fully implement the National Education Policy of 2017 and the educational goals of the Strategic Development Plan 2011–2030. 93. The Special Rapporteur furthermore calls on the Government to take measures to protect and revitalize all mother tongues in Timor-Leste as they are integral to the cultural identity of the Timorese and the loss of languages impacts adversely on their cultural heritage, customs and traditions. In particular, in view of the successful results of the mother-tongue education pilot programme, the Government should scale up the use of the mother tongue in schools in other parts of the country and provide the needed trainings and materials. Development, poverty and the rights to food and health 94. While Timor-Leste has a policy framework to address malnutrition, including the Zero Hunger National Action Plan 2015–2025, the National Nutrition Strategy 2014–2019 and the Food and Nutrition Security Policy of 2017, the State budget allocations for agriculture and health are insufficient. The Special Rapporteur recommends that additional government resources be assigned to implement, coordinate, monitor and evaluate the measures taken to reduce malnutrition. Multisectoral interventions in agriculture, health, education, water and sanitation should be supported. 95. In order to reduce food insecurity and the reliance on food importation and combat the incidence of malnutrition, the Special Rapporteur encourages the Government to focus on increasing the production of traditional crops such as cassava and sweet potato. 96. The Special Rapporteur recommends that the Government strengthen resources for the implementation of the Bolsa da Mãe programme in order to support poor female-headed households. 97. The Special Rapporteur calls on the Government to ratify the Convention on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities and strengthen efforts to increase the accuracy of data and the integration of disability in legislation, planning and budgeting. Cultural heritage 98. In order to support traditional livelihoods and protect cultural heritage, the Special Rapporteur recommends that consultations be undertaken with women weavers in order to promote the protection of the designs of indigenous textiles (tais). 16
