104. We also strongly reaffirm as a pressing requirement
of justice that victims of human rights violations resulting
from racism, racial discrimination, xenophobia and related
intolerance, especially in the light of their vulnerable situation socially, culturally and economically, should be assured
of having access to justice, including legal assistance where
appropriate, and effective and appropriate protection and
remedies, including the right to seek just and adequate reparation or satisfaction for any damage suffered as a result of
such discrimination, as enshrined in numerous international
and regional human rights instruments, in particular the
Universal Declaration of Human Rights and the
International Convention on the Elimination of All Forms of
Racial Discrimination;
105. Guided by the principles set out in the Millennium
Declaration and the recognition that we have a collective
responsibility to uphold the principles of human dignity,
equality and equity and to ensure that globalization becomes
a positive force for all the world’s people, the international
community commits itself to working for the beneficial integration of the developing countries into the global economy,
resisting their marginalization, determined to achieve accelerated economic growth and sustainable development and to
eradicate poverty, inequality and deprivation;
106. We emphasize that remembering the crimes or
wrongs of the past, wherever and whenever they occurred,
unequivocally condemning its racist tragedies and telling the
truth about history are essential elements for international
reconciliation and the creation of societies based on justice,
equality and solidarity;
