Abstract
The International Convention for the Protection of All Persons from Enforced Disappearance is a critical piece of the international human rights framework and a cornerstone for the protection of persons from enforced disappearance. The Convention is the result of the tireless work and advocacy of States, associations of victims’ families, non-governmental human rights organizations, other parts of civil society and experts, who, over a quarter of a century, emphasized the need for a universal instrument to efficiently prevent and address this heinous human rights violation. Its all-encompassing approach focuses on prevention and punishment of enforced disappearances, as well as on reparations and guarantees of its non-recurrence.
