The Journey of 15 years: Maputo Protocol
2003 - 2018
The Protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights on the Rights of Women in Africa, better known as the Maputo Protocol, guarantees comprehensive rights to women including the right to take part in the political process, to social and political equality with men, improved autonomy in their reproductive health decisions, and an end to female genital mutilation.[2] As the name suggests, it was adopted by the African Union in the form of a protocol to the African Charter on Human and Peoples' Rights in Maputo, Mozambique.
The protocol was adopted by the African Union on 11 July 2003 at its second summit in Maputo, Mozambique.
The Maputo Protocol deals with the rights of women in a way that is specific to the African context. Obviously there is much to celebrate but there are a number of issues outstanding.
In the first place, the Maputo protocol has been ratified by 41 states, that leaves actually 14 members states of the African Union that still need to ratify.
But more importantly, it is the lack of actual cases that still need to be submitted to both the African Commission and the African Court.
