A/73/176 fishing and shifting cultivation, among others, are discuss ed by the indigenous decision-making bodies, which establish rules to avoid overfishing and for the management of grazing lands. Food security remains a key issue tackled by many indigenous governance systems because of the impacts of climate change, espec ially floods, droughts, hurricanes and desertification (see A/HRC/36/46). 61. The work of the Special Rapporteur can provide useful guidance to States and indigenous peoples when moving forward in the impleme ntation of the 2030 Agenda nationally. An initial analysis of country reports of the mandate holder since 2005 indicates that 76 per cent of recommendations made in the reports had a direct link and relevance to the content of one of the 169 targets of the Sustainable Development Goals. 16 A similar trend was visible when recommendations relating to indigenous peoples were assessed in the second cycle of the universal periodic review, where 68 per cent of the recommendations had a link to the Sustainable Deve lopment Goals. 17 62. Looking further at the 580 recommendations contained in country reports issued by the mandate holder since 2005 that could be linked to one or more of the Sustainable Development Goals, a clear pattern emerged, showing that the strongest links were to target 16.7, on responsible, inclusive and participatory decision -making. In total, 33 per cent of all linked recommendations were related to that target. The analysis also emphasized the importance of indigenous peoples ’ rights to their lands, territories and resources, with 29 per cent of linked recommendations relating to target 1.4, on equal rights to ownership, basic services, technology and economic resources, and 26 per cent to target 2.3, on secure land rights, as shown in th e figure below. 18 __________________ 16 17 18 18-11856 Based on an initial analysis of 764 recommendations from country reports issued by the mandate holder since 2005. One recommendation may be linked to more than one Sustainable Development Goal. A total of 580 out of 764 recommendations were linked to one or more targets. The analysis was conducted in cooperation with the Danish Institute for Human Ri ghts. For more information, see http://upr.humanrights.dk.
