Sumario: The Paris Principles are the benchmark against which national human rights institutions are measured in the important accreditation process managed by the international network that groups them today. Because of their origin, these principles favour the human rights commission as institutional model over the ombudsman and the human rights institute, and focuses on the creation of these institutions, rather than in their subsequent operation. These two aspects constitute a limitation to such principles. Even though the first of these problems has been solved in practice, the second one remains a reality that requires identifying criteria of efficiency going beyond institutional design and guiding national human rights institutions in the effective fulfilment of their functions. In the case of Latin America, it is essential not to lose sight of the integration of these institutions to achieve this goal. Only with adequate personnel they can persuade and influence not only state organs, but also civil society, thus promoting and protecting the human rights of all.
