Resumo

Conventionality control ensures the practical application of International Human Rights Law norms within domestic legal systems. In Brazil, these norms are incorporated through the country’s voluntary adherence to international human rights protection systems, with the Public Prosecutor’s Office responsible for their effective implementation by adopting a resolute approach to humanitarian and democratic protection. Given this, the question is: to what extent does the Public Prosecutor’s Office of Rio Grande do Norte (MPRN) promote the exercise of conventionality control in the scope of its duties? In this regard, the general objective is to identify the promotion of conventionality control by the prosecution body from Rio Grande do Norte. The specific objectives are: a) comprehending the significance of conventionality control for the effectiveness of international human rights regulations; b) assessing the applicability of vertical compatibility mechanisms in Brazilian Law; and c) investigating practical circumstances within the MPRN, in which institutional expressions prompt the examination of conventionality. The research employs a qualitative approach and documentary sources, including the collection of legislation, jurisprudence, doctrines, and articles related to the theme, in addition to incorporating a practical case study based on the empirical analysis of prosecution actions. This study is justified by the significant role of the Public Prosecutor’s Office in adapting the national legal system to the international order, considering CNMP Recommendation No. 26/23 and Sustainable Development Goal 16. Thus, the research is based on conventionalizing the Public Ministry’s actions through a resolute and compatible approach with its constitutional mission.
