This edited volume examines the development and challenges of governance, democracy, and human rights in Africa. It analyzes the emerging challenges for strengthening good governance in the region and explores issues related to civil, political, economic, cultural, and social rights highlighting group rights including women, girls, and other minority groups. The project presents a useful study of the democratization processes and normative developments in Africa exploring challenges in the form of corruption, conflict, political violence, and their subsequent impact on populations. The contributors appraise the implementation gap between law and practice and the need for institutional reform to build strong and robust mechanisms at the domestic, regional, and international levels. Michael Addaney is Scholar at the Research Institute of Environmental Law of Wuhan University Law School, Wuhan, China. Michael Gyan Nyarko is Litigation Coordinator and Researcher, Centre for Human Rights, University of Pretoria, South Africa. Elsabe Boshoff is Technical Assistant/Legal Officer at the African Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights Secretariat in Banjul, The Gambia.
