Africa Legal Aid Quarterly: Journal addressing human rights and justice developments in Africa
AFLA’s “flagship journal,” the Africa Legal Aid Quarterly, highlights the often marginalised voices of Africa in human rights discourse. Since its launch in 1996, the AFLA Quarterly has produced a wealth of information from African legal scholars, judges, gender advocates, legal practitioners and opinion leaders, on human rights and justice developments relating to Africa. Due to its affordability at EURO 100 for four issues, the only major journal addressing human rights and justice developments in Africa in popular legal discourse is accessible to all. So if you believe there is a need to mainstream African Voices in popular legal discourse, a need for a comprehensive analysis of the most pertinent issues at the heart of the African continent, and a need to make African issues visible on the International Agenda, then the Africa Legal Aid Quarterly is for you. Confirm your subscription today at publications@africalegalaid.com For more information on AFLA Publications and a free sample of the AFLA Quarterly, visit www.africalegalaid.com.
