International Human Rights Research Guide

International human rights documents and decisions are primarily governed by the bodies of the United Nations. The United Nations was established on October 24, 1945, by the governments of 51 countries, including the victors of WWII — the United States, England, France, Russia. The United Nations is a body committed to securing the world’s peace through international cooperation. Human rights issues affect all countries, whether they are active participants in the United Nations or not.
