Third theme, to come up with an initial notion of
an IP Rights Observatory and National Inquiry on
IP Rights. Ang National Inquiry on IP Rights ay
ano po ba? Ito po ay isang proseso, na magiging
paraan para ipagpatuloy ang pag-monitor ng
sitwasyon ng ating mga katutubo, ng ating mga
ethno-linguistic groups. Ano na ba ang level ng
realization sa kanilang right to development? Ang
Atty. Jesus G. Torres
grupo n’yo rin po ay p’wedeng mag-define kung
anong pagkaka-intindi n’yo sa right to development.
At the end of the 2-day session we will develop a statement. This will be the output
of our sessions. This is a consensus-building activity. We can agree to disagree
among ourselves to whatever issues you will be discussing among your groups.
Definition of Sustainable Development
The development that meets the needs of the present, without compromising the
ability of future generations to meet their own needs.
In the IP term, we call it the inter-generational activity.
Definition of Right to Development
The right to development is an inalienable human right by virtue of which every
human person and all peoples are entitled to participate in, contribute to, and
enjoy economic, social, cultural and political development, in which all human
rights and fundamental freedoms can be fully realized.
This highlighted the Economic, Social and Cultural Rights (ESCR) which is in
relation to the International Covenant on ESCR. This will also inter-twined with
the Civil, Political Rights (CPR), which gives the human rights to be indivisible.
The government is not providing programs particularly to our ethno-linguistic
groups, but rather the condition of the government is an exercise of the State
obligation, i.e. to respect, protect and fulfill these rights.
The human right to development also implies the full realization of the right of
peoples to self-determination, which includes, subject to the relevant provisions
of both International Covenants on Human Rights, the exercise of their
inalienable right to full sovereignty over all their natural wealth and resources.
