\u00a0NOTES FOR EDITORS:<\/strong>
1.\u00a0The European Court of Human Rights (ECHR) is a regional human rights judicial body based in Strasbourg, France. The Court began operating in 1959 and has delivered more than 10,000 judgments regarding alleged violations of the European Convention on Human Rights.
2.\u00a0In 1998, the European human rights system was reformed to eliminate the European Commission of Human Rights, which previously decided the admissibility of complaints, oversaw friendly settlements, and referred some cases to the Court \u2013 in a manner similar to the current Inter-American System. Now, individual victims may submit their complaints directly to the European Court of Human Rights.
3.\u00a0The European Court, or \u201cStrasbourg Court\u201d as it is often called, serves a complementary role to that of the European Committee of Social Rights, which oversees European States\u2019 respect for social and economic rights.
4.\u00a0The African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights (the Court) is a continental court established by African countries to ensure protection of human and peoples\u2019 rights in Africa. It complements and reinforces the functions of the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights.
5.\u00a0The Court was established by virtue of Article 1 of the Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights on the Establishment of an African Court on Human and Peoples\u2019 Rights, (the Protocol) which was adopted by Member States of the then Organization of African Unity (OAU) in Ouagadougou, Burkina Faso, in June 1998. The Protocol came into force on 25 January 2004 after it was ratified by more than 15 countries.<\/p>\n","protected":false},"excerpt":{"rendered":"
