This article aims to analyze the Inter-American Human Rights System, highlighting its transformative impact on the Latin American context, as well as its increasing empowerment in the region, which is a product of the effectiveness of the judicial dialogue in a multilevel system. Indeed, under this multilevel perspective four strands of judicial dialogue emerge, to be noted in the text. Finally, we seek to identify the main challenges of the system and the potential risks of its reform agenda, arguing that the indisstrengthening of the Inter-American System requires the adoption of measures to strengthen its universality, institutionality, independence, sustainability and effectiveness, for which at the end we highlight seven proposals.
Keywords: Inter-American Human Rights System, judicial dialogue, Latin American.
