International Treaties
Palau joined the United Nations in 1994. It is party to one of the nine core human rights treaties - the Convention on the Rights of the Child(CRC). In September 2011, Palau signed the other eight core human rights treaties. The Pacific Office of the United Nations High Commissioner for Human Rights congratulated Palau on these signatures, noting that "the commitment shown by these signatures is remarkable and gives a clear message that Palau has now started a journey to provide people in the country with a stronger foundation to enjoy human rights and fundamental freedoms."
