I like this approach.

The wording can be made more concise and less ambgiuous as follows.

Here are the four alternatices.


1.       Within its mission and in its operations, ICANN will respect 
internationally recognized human rights.

2.      Within its mission and in its operations, ICANN will respect the 
internationally recognized human rights set out in the Universal 
Declaration of Human Rights.

3.      Within its mission and in its operations, ICANN will respect the 
internationally recognized human rights set out in the Universal 
Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Cultural and 
Political Rights and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and 
Cultural Rights.

4.       Within its mission and in its operations, ICANN will respect 
the internationally recognized human rights set out in the Universal 
Declaration of Human Rights, the International Covenant on Cultural and 
Political Rights and the International Covenant on Economic, Social and 
Cultural Rights and will carry out its work guided by the UN Guiding 
Principles on Business and Human Rights.
