Lady Justice Imani Daud Aboud.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The delegation included the Vice-President of the Court, Hon. Justice Blaise Tchikaya, and key Registry staff.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Minister lauded the visit, adding that it was encouraging to see that the Court\u2019s new leadership has taken a renewed approach of engaging with AU Member States on ways to strengthen the continental judicial body.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe new leadership of the Court has embarked on a renewed approach to its cooperation with States due to challenges it has faced recently in this respect. This is a most welcome and refreshing move,\u2019\u2019 the Minister said during the joint meeting.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Minister challenged the Court to undertake reforms to make it more effective by<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>reviewing the structure of the Court and its Registry as well as conditions of service of Judges.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>&nbsp;\u2018\u2019The Court needs an overhaul of its statutes to take into account some operational challenges it has been facing,\u2019\u2019 the Minister pointed out.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>Justice Imani said the Court has been facing challenges include the relatively low level of ratifications, very few declarations which have been on the decline in recent years, and a poor level of implementation of decisions of the Court.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>\u201cThe protection of human and peoples\u2019 rights is a collective responsibility, with the Member States at the centre as the key stakeholders. The African Court was established at the instance of the Heads of State who were convinced, and still remain convinced, that the African Court is a key player in the socio-economic and political development of the continent,\u2019\u2019 she reminded.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Court, she added, was established to help States meet their obligations to ensure the enjoyment of human rights of their nationals, and for the Court to effectively discharge its mandate, the support of States is very critical.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>She added: \u201cThe Court is extending a hand to all Member States of the Union to work together for the enhancement of human rights on the continent.\u201d<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>The Court is marking its 15<sup>th<\/sup> Anniversary this year and needs everyone\u2019s support to ensure it executes its mandate as enshrined in the Protocol. \u201cThe Court is organising a Retreat with the policy organs of the African Union to discuss possible reforms of the Court in Zanzibar in December.\u2019\u2019 President Imani said.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p><strong>NOTES FOR EDITORS&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp;<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>1. The African Court on Human and Peoples\u2019 Rights was established by virtue of Article 1 of the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples&#8217; Rights on the Establishment of an African Court on Human and Peoples&#8217; Rights.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>2. The Court is composed of 11 Judges, nationals of Member States of the African Union elected in their individual capacity.<\/p>\n\n\n\n<p>3.
