Human Rights Committee

The Human Rights Committee is an international body formed by experts to oversee the implementation of the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights (ICCPR). Its primary role is to monitor how countries uphold individuals' rights, such as freedom of speech, fair trials, and privacy. Countries that have signed the ICCPR submit regular reports on their human rights practices, which the Committee reviews. It can also consider individual complaints if the rights are violated, helping to promote accountability and better protection of civil and political freedoms worldwide.
