10 Statement from the Participants: Recognise the positive contributions World Heritage makes to Human Rights but Lime production, Mozambique note, however, that cases exist where the rights and interests of people associated with World Heritage sites have been negatively impacted, and that such impacts contradict national and international commitments on human rights, poverty reduction, equity and sustainable development;
