The Core International Human Rights Treaties

Attachments

This publication reproduces the core universal human rights treaties in pocket size. It is based on the comprehensive compilation that the Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights (OHCHR) published in February 2003: Human Rights: A Compilation of International Instruments - Universal Instruments. By publishing the core treaties in this user-friendly format, OHCHR wishes to make them more accessible, in particular to Government officials, civil society, human rights defenders, legal practitioners, scholars, individual citizens and others with an interest in human rights norms and standards.
