Abstract
It goes without saying the extent of international interest in the issue of human rights, especially after the establishment of the United Nations Organization. This interest was translated in the Charter of the United Nations of 1945, which established major organs of duties to promote and protect human rights and fundamental freedoms and to emphasize equality without discrimination, as the Charter authorized To establish sub-committees with a view to translating the goals and purposes of the United Nations. Where the International Council for Human Rights was established in 2006 to succeed the Commission on Human Rights, which is affiliated with the General Assembly of the United Nations, where this Council has undertaken multiple mechanisms for the promotion and protection of human rights, and made achievements and contributions with the aim of advancing them.This study came according to three sections. The first section dealt with the development of the establishment of the Council through exposure to the stage prior to its establishment, which is the era of the Human Rights Committee, and then the era of its establishment in which we dealt with introducing the Council in terms of composition, membership and duties, and then assessing this formation, and the second topic was allocated To clarify the Council's mechanisms represented by special procedures and complaints procedure, the universal periodic review, and the advisory committee, and the evaluation of these mechanisms. As for the third topic, it dealt with the most important contributions of the Council.
