This paper deals with the African Commission on Human and People's Rights, its core functiions, major achievements and failures.
Since its inception in 1963, the Organisation of African Unity (OAU) now African Union (AU) concentrated all its efforts on dismantling the relics of colonialism and fighting apartheid, consequently relegating the promotion and protection of individual as well as group rights to a secondary position and priority was instead given to the security and inviolability of states at the expense of individual liberty. The Continent was consequently not at the same wavelength in terms of Human Rights with the other continents, especially the west.
