Human rights treaties influence domestic laws by setting international standards that governments are expected to uphold. When countries ratify these treaties, they commit to integrating human rights principles into their legal systems, which can lead to significant reforms and improvements in areas like justice, equality, and freedom. Compliance with international human rights norms often necessitates changes in domestic legislation and practices, promoting accountability and protection for vulnerable populations. Moreover, these treaties can serve as a basis for civil society advocacy, strengthening the rule of law and reinforcing democratic governance.
