A Human Rights Court is a judicial body that hears cases related to violations of human rights. These courts aim to protect individuals' rights as outlined in international treaties and agreements, such as the European Convention on Human Rights. They provide a platform for victims to seek justice and hold governments accountable for their actions. Typically, these courts operate at a regional level, with notable examples including the Inter-American Court of Human Rights and the African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights. Their decisions can lead to reparations for victims and influence national laws to better protect human rights.
