Extract

As many of you know, the Inter-American Human Rights System is composed of two institutions, the Inter-American Court of Human Rights (the Court or the IACtHR) and the Inter-American Commission on Human Rights (the Commission or the IACHR). Despite its shortcomings, the Inter-American System is very important in our era, a time overrun by violence, xenophobia, and discrimination.
