A/HRC/14/43
Rapporteur refers to the mandates of various missions by the United Nations and to peace
agreements in order to examine some crucial requirements for a lasting peace. He believes
that ensuring sustainable peace requires relevant stakeholders to, inter alia: (a)
acknowledge the ethnic or racial dimension of a given conflict; (b) recognize and address
human rights violations, including racial discrimination, committed during a conflict; (c)
maintain vigilance vis-à-vis renewed incitement to hatred and violence; and (d) ensure
participation of and genuine dialogue among all components of the society.
Chapter V briefly refers to the activities undertaken by the Special Rapporteur since
June 2009. These include country missions, as well as participation in seminars and
conferences.
Finally, in chapter VI the Special Rapporteur outlines his conclusions and
recommendations. The recommendations are aimed at providing relevant stakeholders with
a number of tools for detecting early warning signs of racism, racial discrimination,
xenophobia and related intolerance and reacting accordingly, including by taking measures
to prevent conflict, to remedy situations of conflict or to adequately address issues relating
to racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related intolerance in post-conflict
situations.
