The African human rights system has undergone some remarkable developments since the adoption of the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights, the cornerstone of the African human rights system, in June 1981. The year
2011 marked the 30th anniversary of the adoption of the African Charter. It also marked 25 years since the African Charter entered into force on 21 October 1986.
This book aims to provide reflections on most of the major human rights issues in the past 30 years of the African human rights system in practice and discussion on the future: the African Charter's impact and contribution to the respect, protection and promotion of human rights in Africa; the contemporary challenges faced by the African Human rights system in responding adequately to the demands of rapidly evolving African societies; and how the African human rights system can be strengthened in the future to ensure that the human rights protected in the African Charter, as developed in the jurisprudence of the African Commission since the Commission was inaugurated in 1987, are realised in practice.
The chapters in this volume bring together the work of 20 human rights scholars and practitioners, with expertise in human rights in Africa, under the following general themes: rights and duties in the African Charter; rights of the vulnerable under the African system; implementation mechanisms for human rights in Africa; and towards an effective African regional human rights system.

Manisuli Ssenyonjo is Senior Lecturer in Law, Brunel Law School, Centre for International and Public Law, Brunel University, London. His research interests are in areas of Public International Law and Human Rights Law particularly human rights in Africa.
