背景信息

Proper understanding and appreciation of international law and the multilateral treaty framework is integral to an effective management of international relations. The continuous growth of global challenges and concomitant expansion of collective responses have resulted in many developments in the practice of the Secretary-General (as the depositary of multilateral treaties) and in the registration function of the Secretariat under Article 102 of the Charter of the United Nations. At the 2005 World Summit, Member States specifically recognized the “need for universal adherence to and implementation of the rule of law at both the national and international levels.” The Summit outcome document also drew attention to the importance of States becoming parties to and implementing conventions deposited with the Secretary-General in areas such as terrorism, organized crime and corruption, protection of the environment and human rights. In this context, this training will put a focus on treaty law in practice and emphasize the Convention on the Rights of the Child and its protocols.
