text: instructed to study problems, policies and progressive measures relating to the more effective realization of economic, social and cultural rights, considered that the international co-operation provided by the International Monetary Fund and the World Bank was crucial for the realization of those rights while countries which wished to re-enter the international credit market were applying their structural adjustment policies. 51. One of the most useful studies prepared by the international community on the social and human aspects of the adjustment process, namely the UNICEF study, clearly showed that it was scientifically possible to apply adjustment programmes which would simultaneously guarantee development, on the one hand, and the protection of vulnerable groups, on the other. The publications in question were entitled "Adjustment With a Human Face" (1989) and "The situation of children in the world" (1990). The study on adjustment policies with a human face described the tragic consequences for the individual of the economic crisis and the large-scale indebtedness incurred by many developing countries during the 1980s. The groups most affected had been children, women and other vulnerable groups in most of the countries of Africa and Latin America and in some Asian countries. 52. In its publication on world debt statistics (Debt Tables. 1989-1990), the World Bank had indicated that it was aware that the serious problem of foreign debt was one of the factors that had most impact on economic and social development in many developing countries, as well as the standard of living of their people. 53. New initiatives had been taken on the issue of debt, and positive results were expected; but the problem was far from resolved, as the reports of the World Bank, the IMF, UNCTAD and many non-governmental organizations and universities indicated. That vital issue should, therefore, remain on the 
analysis: The text discusses the relationship between economic policies and their impact on human rights, specifically the rights to economic, social, and cultural development. It mentions the International Monetary Fund, World Bank, and UNICEF, which suggests that the text is focused on global economic issues and their effects on vulnerable populations.
