analysis: This text appears to be a report from the United Nations General Assembly, discussing the establishment of a working group to elaborate on a draft declaration on the human rights of individuals who are not citizens of the country in which they live. The text does not mention specific economic, environmental, or social issues, but rather focuses on the process of drafting a human rights declaration. This suggests that the category should be related to human rights and international law.
