ARTICLE PUBLICATION BY SCOTT LYONS

Posted: Apr 21, 2023

Kudos to ISG’s Acting Senior Principal for Regional Advising, Scott Woodruff Lyons, for his recent publication in International Legal Materials (Vol 62, Issue 1, Feb 2023) on “Hossou v. Benin (Judgment on Jurisdiction)”. The article examines the case of Hossou v. Benin, which was heard by the African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights, concerning jurisdictional issues related to the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights and the establishment of an African Court on Human and Peoples’ Rights. The article provides an insightful analysis of the judgment and its implications for the interpretation of the African Charter and the jurisdiction of the African Court.
