Fourth Forum on International Law and African Union Law

Fourth Forum on International Law and African Union Law

October 19, 2015 to October 20, 2015

The theme for the Fourth Edition of the AUCIL forum was: “The challenges of ratification and implementation of treaties in Africa”.

Bearing in mind the importance of the treaty in the overall context of AU’s objectives and the plan to deepen African political unity and economic integration, the Forum discussed the dilemma of the contradiction between the keenness in ratifying the texts in the context of the African Union and the cumbersome implementation of these texts at the national level; encouraged AU Member States to ratify AU/OAU Treaties and Conventions; and analysed ways in which progressive development of international law on the continent must take place in order to provide urgent responses to these issues.

AUCIL Forums are held annually following the inaugural forum in December 2012, as a platform for discussing and interacting on matters of interest for Africa through the prism of international law and the African Union Law with the view of raising awareness on the necessity of accelerating regional integration, enlightening African decision makers on legal implications of regional integration, present the steps already achieved towards the African integration, identify ways to accelerate regional integration throughout the continent.
