Abstract:

The subject of this article is the problem of acceptance of the rulings rendered by subregional economic courts by the African Commission on Human and Peoples&rsquo; Rights. The research leans on the approaches towards the procedure of filing same cases in multiple international jurisdictions. Particular attention is paid to the International Covenant on Civil and Political Rights and the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights; as well as to the work of African Commission and African Court with regards to the problems of low efficiency in their interaction with the courts of subregio

Abstract:

Qualified and independent judges are essential for the legitimacy of the Courts. African regional courts will only contribute to the rule of law if the courts are legitimately composed. The purpose of this article is to consider whether judicial independence at the African regional and subregional courts has contributed t setting standards for the rule of law in Africa. The focus will be on the African Court of Human and People's Rights as well as the courts of the most prominent subregional communities.

Abstract:

Human rights in Africa are under the microscope of regional and subregional mechanisms. The regional mechanism is under the auspices of the African Union (AU), in which human rights come under the scrutiny of the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights and the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights. Sub-regional organizations, established as Regional Economic Communities (RECs), have recently developed their own jurisprudence in promoting and protecting human rights in Africa through their legally constituted institutions.

Abstract:

Although contentions between and among different communities sharing the same place and time are a general sociopolitical phenomenon plaguing human society, they are more endemic and dynamic in the post-independence society. It is the case of Africa which continues to suffer from the legacies of European colonialist encroachment. Since the imperialist balkanisation of the African society by the Western superpowers following the provisions of the Berlin conference, Africa, notwithstanding her independence and the pan-Africanist discourse held by postcolonial luminaries, is still riven owing to

Abstract The Coronavirus disease (COVID-19) pandemic has revealed the fragility of pre-crisis African health systems, in which too little was invested over the past decades. Yet, development assistance for health (DAH) more than doubled between 2000 and 2020, raising questions about the role and effectiveness of DAH in triggering and sustaining health systems investments.

Little has been published on its distribution, management, morphological characteristics or biological performance.Early reports showed that the Muturu cattle were once widely distributed across the continent from Liberia, across the West African subregion, to Ethiopia. However, due to expansion of the Zebu population and rapid urbanization, the small bodied animal came under pressure and was found surviving in pockets of the savannahs and in the humid forest zones where it had

SUMMARYThe relevance of spatial variation in the environment and host communities for parasite community composition is poorly documented, creating a need for additional case studies from which general principles can be developed. Avian malaria in southern African waterfowl has not previously been studied. As a first step towards documenting and understanding its biogeography, we used PCR and molecular sequencing techniques to analyse 454 blood samples from Afrotropical ducks from 5 different locations (spread around the subregion) for avian malaria.

Implementing ecosystems-based adaptation (EbA) to climate change is challenged by the need to monitor biophysical, socio-cultural, and economic impacts which are usually context-specific. Therefore, robust frameworks are required that integrate impacts to better understand EbA effectiveness. Monitoring frameworks that are universally applicable to EbA are desirable, however their universal application is problematic as they should reflect a community-driven design that accommodates both donor reporting functions and the generation of local-level data and information to support management actio

Abstract:

Abstract South Africa’s Iron Age (c. 250 CE – 1850 CE) was a period of socio-economic transitions. With the spread of Bantu-speaking peoples from western Africa, the region saw the development of settled agriculturalist societies, the rise of complex chiefdoms, and the development of early states such as Mapungubwe. Questions about how settlements and demographics were influenced by environmental factors are central to the study of this period. Climatic conditions directly impact carrying capacity and agricultural productivity. It is therefore likely that climate variability was an important f

In Nigeria, the frequency and magnitude of the clashes and the resultant destruction of lives and property has become a cause for concern to both government and citizens.
