African Commission on Human and Peoples Rights

In addition to performing any other tasks, which may be entrusted to it by the Assembly of Heads of State and Government, the Commission is officially charged with three major functions:

the protection of human and peoples' rights
the promotion of human and peoples' rights
the interpretation of the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights.
