Comisión Nacional de Derechos Humanos (CNDH)

The Comisión Nacional de Derechos Humanos (CNDH) is Mexico’s independent government agency responsible for protecting and promoting human rights. Its role is to investigate violations, recommend actions for accountability, and ensure that authorities respect individual freedoms and dignity. The CNDH can receive complaints from citizens, conduct inquiries, and advocate for improvements in laws and policies. While it does not have enforcement power, its work helps hold institutions accountable and raises awareness about human rights issues across the country.
