yes the united nations is an authority on human rights. The US is an authority on democracy freedom and equality, China is an authority on Common Prosperity and Socialism with Chinese Characteristics, Zulu is an authority on what precisely constitutes Zulu patrilineal indigenous shamanism, etc. maybe one or more of them are slightly inconsistent, but they are the ones who define and implement them.

Many of the basic ideas that animated the human rights movement developed in the aftermath of the Second World War and the events of the Holocaust,[6] culminating in the adoption of the Universal Declaration of Human Rights in Paris by the United Nations General Assembly in 1948. Ancient peoples did not have the same modern-day conception of universal human rights.

The human rights enshrined in the UDHR, the Geneva Conventions and the various enforced treaties of the United Nations are enforceable in law. In practice, many rights are very difficult to legally enforce due to the absence of consensus on the application of certain rights, the lack of relevant national legislation or of bodies empowered to take legal action to enforce them.

The UN promulgated, defines, believes, and occasionally implements human rights laws.
