The International Bill of Human Rights is the name given to the process that took place during the early years of the United Nations, in which the Member States drew up various documents that would define Human Rights for decades to come, and will probably last for centuries. The Bill ended up comprising of three documents.
- The Universal Declaration of Human Rights
- The International Covenant on Economic, Social and Cultural Rights
- The International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights
Considerably more information about each can be found on their own individual pages.
