Peoples' Human Rights Courts

Peoples' Human Rights Courts are tribunals established to uphold and protect individual rights and freedoms, especially in contexts where national courts may be inadequate or biased. They aim to provide a platform for communities and victims to seek justice for human rights violations, often emphasizing participatory and community-based approaches. While not yet universally accepted as official courts, they serve as mechanisms for accountability, raising awareness, and advocating for human rights at grassroots levels. These courts are seen as part of a broader movement to empower people worldwide to defend their rights and ensure justice beyond conventional judicial systems.
