Key Areas to Watch

First, keep an eye on climate agreements. Africa is a major player in the Paris Accord and new regional pacts are shaping how countries protect forests and water. Second, watch human‑rights rulings from the African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights – these decisions often set precedents for freedom of expression and election law. Third, trade deals matter; the African Continental Free Trade Area (AfCFTA) includes legal chapters that regulate cross‑border services and investment. Finally, maritime law is gaining attention as nations negotiate fishing rights in the Indian Ocean.
