Si bien fue creado en 2004, no ha sido sino en los últimos años cuando ha llevado a cabo una incontestable tutela de los derechos humanos en África, actitud que ha dado lugar a que, pese a los arduos retos que aún ha de afrontar, tanto la sociedad civil como organismos pro derechos humanos y académicos hayan puesto sus esperanzas en esta institución en aras de acabar con la impunidad que azota dicho continente, siguiendo los pasos de sus continentes hermanos: América y Europa.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="en"><p><![CDATA[Abstract: In this article we will analyze one of the less known regional courts of human rights protection to the western world: the African Court on Human Rights and People&#8217;s Rights (AfCHPR). Although it was created in 2004, it was not until recent years that it has irrefutably protected human rights in Africa. This attitude has caused, despite the difficult challenges to be faced, that both the civil society as well as pro human rights and academic bodies to put their hope in this institution in order to end the impunity that reigns in said continent, following the steps of its sibling continents: America and Europe.]]></p></abstract>
<abstract abstract-type="short" xml:lang="fr"><p><![CDATA[Résumé: Le présent article permet de se familiariser avec une des cours régionales de justice au service de la protection des êtres humains les moins connues dans le monde occidental: la Cour africaine des droits de l&#8250;homme et des peuples (CAfDHP). Bien que créée en 2004, ce n&#8217;est qu&#8217;au cours des dernières années qu&#8217;elle s&#8217;est incontestablement attachée à défendre les droits humains en Afrique. Si elle doit encore faire face à de nombreux défis, il n&#8217;en demeure pas moins qu&#8217;une telle attitude permet à la société civile comme à des organisations de défense de citoyens ou du monde universitaire de placer leurs espoirs dans cette institution afin d&#8217;en finir avec l&#8217;impunité qui étrangle ce continent pour que l&#8217;Afrique puisse ainsi suivre le chemin jadis emprunté par l&#8217;Europe et l&#8217;Amérique.]]></p></abstract>
