Authors

Abstract

Because of poverty, the main problem of African people is focusing on second generis of human rights. However constitution of African Court on Human and People’s Rights in 2006 besides African human rights commission could improve promotion of all human rights in Africa Continent. There were some problems from outset of constitution of the Court like financial sources, reluctance of States for approving the Constitution and some restrictions in jurisdiction of the court. These problems caused to a suggestion for merging of the Court and African court of justice. So a protocol has been signed but it’s not obliging yet. Restrictions in the Court for compulsory proceeding to claims of African citizens and NGO’s caused to low efficiency of Court for preserving human rights and low quantity of cases which have been proceeded.
