Abstract

A national human rights institution is a body specialized in the promotion and protection of human rights within a state. There are clear prohibitions with respect to membership in national human rights institutions and to addressing complaints. These prohibitions set forth the limits of the functions of national human rights institutions; clarify their status and nature; elucidate the relationships between them and the legislative, executive and the judiciary; and direct future trends and development of national human rights institutions.

Keywords:
