AfCHPR is a Continental Court established by the Member States of the African Union, to ensure the protection of human and peoples\u2019 rights in Africa. The Court commenced its operations in 2006, and has its permanent seat in Arusha, Tanzania.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. The Court was established under the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples\u2019 Rights on the establishment of an African Court on Human and Peoples\u2019 Rights, which was adopted on June 9 1998 in Burkina Faso, and came into force on January 25 2004. Uganda ratified the Protocol on February 16 2001. So far, 30 countries have ratified the Protocol and of these, only nine have deposited the Declaration required under Article 34(6) of the Protocol to allow NGOs and individuals to access the Court directly.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3. The Court is composed of 11 Judges, nationals of Member States of the African Union elected in their individual capacity.<br>4. The Judicial Dialogue is a biennial event, institutionalised by the African Union. This is the first time that the event will be hosted outside the Seat of the African Court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Further information on the Court can be obtained from the Court\u2019s website at <a href=\"http:\/\/www.african-court.org\">www.african-court.org<\/a>.<br><strong>For more comments<\/strong>:\u00a0\u00a0 \u00a0<br>Dr Robert Eno, Registrar<br><strong>Tel<\/strong>: +255 (0)272970430; 272970431; 272970432; 272970433; 272970434; 272970435<br><strong>Email<\/strong>:\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:Robert.Eno@african-court.org\">Robert.Eno@african-court.org<\/a> \/ Registrar@african-court.org <br><strong>For Media inquiries<\/strong>:\u00a0<a href=\"mailto:AfricanCourtMedia@african-court.org\">AfricanCourtMedia@african-court.org<\/a><\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"<p>Arusha, 23 October, 2019: The Fourth African Judicial Dialogue will be held from 30 October to 1 November 2019 in Kampala, Uganda.
