Civil society organisations, NGOs and other bodies can influence policy and law at international and regional levels, and this in turn has an impact on laws, policies and actions of national governments.

This can be achieved through:

1. Contributing to the development of new treaties or UN General Comments;

2. Period country reports on international / regional treaties;

3. Peer review mechanisms;

4. Individual complaints procedures.
