Legal Definitions - international regime

An international regime is a set of rules, policies, and norms of behavior that cover international issues and facilitate arrangements among countries. It can be either substantive or procedural.

• The United Nations Framework Convention on Climate Change (UNFCCC) is an international regime that aims to address global warming. It sets targets for reducing greenhouse gas emissions and provides a framework for countries to work together to achieve these targets.
• The World Trade Organization (WTO) is an international regime that regulates international trade. It sets rules for trade between countries and provides a forum for resolving disputes.

These examples illustrate how international regimes can help countries work together to address global issues and promote cooperation.
