This paper brings to light the issue of strengthening human rights policies in the Mercosur regional environment through the ratification by the President of the Republic of Brazil, in 2017, of the Mercosur Institute of Public Policies on Human Rights (IPPDH). The said structure was ratified only seven years after the decision had been consensually passed at the regional level. The paper’s main aim is to show the reflections of the late ratification of the IPPDH structure by the Brazilian government, and outline the prognoses for the body. It is supported by bibliographic research, as well as by official documents obtained in institutional websites such as those of Mercosur, IPPDH, UN, and Brazilian Federal Senate. It was found out that Revista Jurídica vol. 01, n°. 54, Curitiba, 2019. pp. 51 72 DOI: 10.6084/m9.figshare.7840823  52 the slowness in the implementation of the said treaty had impacts on the effectiveness of Human Rights policies in the region, such as life improvement for members of the bloc, and the consolidation of the Institute’s own budget. Thus, IPPDH has been availing itself of funds raised through specific projects with the Fund for Structural Convergence and Strengthening of the Institutional Structure (FOCEM), which limits the bloc’s actions. Although the IPPDH’ s initiative of counting on the support of FOCEM’s investments is a non-definitive modality for the eradication of existing asymmetries, which are more present in less developed countries, it is understood that, although Brazil faces a democratic deficit, its full participation can establish more solid actions and produce more satisfactory results in order to strengthen the integration amongst member states.
