Despite the agreed levels, the international financial organizations have a limiting influence on collective bargaining, and thereby the lowest labour price is the basis for salary calculations.

But, instead of working together with its social partners, the government, heeding the troika s advice, dismantled the country s collective bargaining system, leaving workers unrepresented.

Human rights and mass exoduses early warning mechanisms

Monitoring the human rights of persons in mass exodus

Human rights violations are most often the root as well as immediate cause of mass exodus.

International cooperation in the field of human rights and humanitarian assistance must be guided by the principle of collective responsibility.

National human rights institutions also play an important role in promoting national responsibility and reinforcing protection of the rights of persons in mass exodus.

The four previous reports to the General Assembly on human rights and mass exoduses (A 52 494, A 54 360, A 56 334 and A 58 186) demonstrated the profound connection between human rights and mass exodus and forced displacement.

None of the United Nations human rights mechanism foresees a collective communications procedure.

Collective strategies, collective institutions and collective action are indispensable.

Extensive agendas and the large number of meetings made it increasingly difficult to manage negotiations efficiently in the limited time available at sessions.

Sadly, the international community did not respond to last autumn s mass arrests of human rights defenders.

Throughout the Israeli occupation, the national existence of the Palestinian people had been threatened and their collective and individual human rights had been systematically violated.

In addition, human rights issues are often at the core of the conflicts or other acts that give rise to mass exoduses.

In the same way, the Russian Federation tacitly accepts the applicability of the Genocide Convention of 1948 and of human rights law to situations of armed conflict.

We are rebuilding our nation on the principles of human rights and equality, rather than on the mass graves and genocides of the past.

But the Commission has also concluded that the mass violations of human rights were no less serious than genocide.

If history has proven, time and again, that mass exoduses are caused by violations of human rights, it is only natural to seek to address a deteriorating human rights situation early on to prevent the displacement of people.

Collective contracts also define by law employees' rights in respect to paid leave during national holidays and days not being working days.

Recognizing the important contribution of the United Nations human rights machinery to efforts towards preventing situations in which the crime of genocide could be committed,

Yet it is clear that massive human rights violations and genocide could be cause for intervention by the international community.

Endorsing the Secretary General's Action Plan to Prevent Genocide, including, inter alia, swift and military action in extreme cases, presented to the Commission on Human Rights on 7 April 2004 the tenth anniversary of the Rwanda genocide recalling that the international community had failed to prevent the genocides in Rwanda and Srebrenica because of lack of will,

But since the 1960 s, the passions expended until then on righting collective wrongs have been increasingly channeled into securing the rights of humans as individuals. Indeed, if the West can be said to have a public philosophy nowadays, it is a philosophy of human rights.

At the international level, the human rights treaty bodies and the special procedures of the Commission on Human Rights play equally important roles in monitoring and assessing the human rights dimensions of situations of mass exodus in States where such movements take place or which are affected by such movements.

So let us end genocide as we know it by stopping genocides, but also by abandoning the crime of genocide.

At the same time, human rights treaty bodies have worked to have persons in mass exodus recognized within the overall framework of the rights established in the treaties.

Because of the adverse impact of terrorism, not only on peace and security but also on human rights and fundamental freedoms, she had also stressed the importance of strengthening the collective ability of the intergovernmental system to combat it.

It was the responsibility of the High Commissioner for Human Rights, her Office and the special procedures of the Commission on Human Rights to denounce the continuing genocide against the Palestinian people and to present recommendations for the respect of their human rights, beginning with the right to life.

Moreover, the 1948 Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide is listed under Human rights , while the Rome Statute of the International Criminal Court comes under Penal matters .
