The African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights is a tribunal established to ensure the protection of human rights across the continent.
The Court recently celebrated its 10th anniversary - a decade that has been filled with challenges. It was originally set up in Addis Ababa, Ethiopia, in November 2006, but in August 2007 its headquarters moved to Arusha, Tanzania.
Out of the 54 member states of the African Union, only 34 recognise the Court. However, an even fewer number, 7 member states to be exact, allow NGOs and individuals to bring cases before it. But perhaps the biggest challenge is that Africans don't seem to know the Court even exists.
So, has it failed? What has the court accomplished so far? And how will it move forward to guarantee human rights are protected across Africa?
To find out, we sit down with the president and vice president of the African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights, Justice Sylvain Ore and Justice Ben Kioko, as they talk to Al Jazeera.
