DR2028 Document Library — Module 6. The Dominican Republic has signed and ratified international commitments it is legally bound to uphold. This module summarizes those treaties — because DR2028 decrees are, in large part, simply enforcing standards the Dominican government already agreed to and failed to execute. Treaty summaries are DR2028 analytical briefs, not official publications.
Treaties in this module
- UN Convention Against Corruption (UNCAC) — DR2028 summary: signed 2003, ratified 2006. The global anti-corruption framework.
- Inter-American Convention Against Corruption — DR2028 summary: the OAS regional convention and its MESICIC review mechanism.
Why this module exists
Under Dominican law, ratified treaties form an integral part of the domestic legal order and override any contrary provision. That means the anti-corruption and transparency standards in these treaties are not foreign suggestions — they are Dominican law. DR2028's position: our decrees do not invent new obligations; they execute existing ones.
