| Title | A CRITIQUE OF ACCESSIBILITY TO THE AFRICAN COURT FOR HUMAN AND PEOPLES RIGHTS BY INDIVIDUALS AND NGOS. DRAWING EXPERIENCES FROM THE INTER AMERICAN AND EUROPEAN SYSTEMS. |
| Summary | This thesis will argue that direct access to the Court by individuals and NGO’s is a key element to the effective promotion and protection of human rights on the African continent. The study will also confirm that limited accessibility by individuals and NGO’s hampers effectiveness of the Court since the pre-condition for a declaration impedes the African Court from fully exerting its stamp and fulfilling its mandate to protect and promote human rights in Africa thus crippling its effectiveness. Particular focus and reference will be given to article 34(6) of the Protocol establishing the African Court. The African, European and Inter American regional systems will be laws will be analyzed comparatively to critique the effectiveness of the African Court with regard to its accessibility criteria of the individuals and NGO’s and offer recommendations for consolidation of the African Court. |
