The effectiveness of international legal agreements is significantly influenced by the forum where they are negotiated and implemented. Different forums, with their unique institutional characteristics such as mandates, capacities, cultures, and legal processes, impact the substantive content of agreements and the compliance of states with these provisions. Variations in forum characteristics shape issue framing, the negotiation process, and the incentives for state compliance, ultimately affecting the overall success of international agreements.
