SUMMARY:The Africa Group mission to The Gambia
DESCRIPTION:From 31 October to 3 November 2017\, the Africa Group for Justice and Accountability (AGJA) and the Wayamo Foundation sent a fact-finding delegation to The Gambia. The delegation arrived in The Gambia in response to an invitation by Justice Minister Abubacarr Tambadou. Its aim was to understand the nature of The Gambia’s ongoing transition from authoritarian rule under former President Yahya Jammeh to democracy and the rule of law. Over a series of broad consultations with key stakeholders in the transitional process\, the delegation sought to understand the challenges and priorities regarding the achievement of justice and accountability in the country. The delegation was led by former Chief Justice of Tanzania\, Mohamed Chande Othman and included human rights advocate Fatiha Serour (Algeria) and Wayamo Foundation Deputy Director Mark Kersten (Canada). \nBased on the delegation’s consultations as well as ongoing research on the country’s transition conducted at the Wayamo Foundation\, the mission report offers a series of recommendations to authorities and officials in The Gambia as they continue to work on achieving justice and accountability and building a state that eagerly and effectively defends the rule of law and human rights. It is also expected that it will inform the work of the Wayamo Foundation\, AGJA and other partners interested in further supporting The Gambia’s transition process.

SUMMARY:Judges´ retreat on judicial independence
DESCRIPTION:As part of the Wayamo Foundation’s commitment to spreading knowledge and building capacity among judges in the East African region\, the symposium was followed by a one-day retreat on 8 August (see programme)\, attended by fifteen judges from national\, regional\, and international courts. They shared experiences in tackling transnational organised crime\, building effective judiciaries and courts\, and protecting the independence of their institutions. By enhancing knowledge of the judiciary’s role in addressing serious and transnational crimes\, the ultimate goal is to build competency to address such crimes domestically and an understanding of the complementary role of national\, regional and international courts. The retreat was a powerful demonstration of the commitment shown by both the participants and the Wayamo Foundation to strengthen the rule of law through the fostering of strong\, independent and effective judiciaries.

SUMMARY:International Symposium and capacity building\, Dakar\, Senegal
DESCRIPTION:From 7-8 July 2017\, Senegal’s capital of Dakar was the scene of a public symposium entitled\, “Changing the Narrative – From Withdrawal to Constructive Engagement”.  \nClick here for the Symposium report. \nConvened by the Wayamo Foundation and the Africa Group for Justice and Accountability (AGJA)\, the symposium brought together a number of leading stakeholders\, experts\, scholars\, and practitioners in order to discuss a range of topics\, including the current status of the relationship between African states and the International Criminal Court (ICC)\, possible reforms to improve the Court and interpreting the African Union’s (AU) ICC Withdrawal Strategy as a package of reforms\, the role of hybrid mechanisms in prosecuting international crimes\, combating impunity at a regional level\, the coming into force of the crime of aggression\, and the thorny issue of sequencing peace and justice. \nAs a continuation of their ongoing commitment to justice and accountability across the continent\, the Wayamo Foundation and AGJA convened a capacity building workshop from 10-11 July\, following their two-day public symposium. The two-day training workshop (see programme) brought together for the first time the members of the Special Criminal Court (SCC) of the Central African Republic (CAR). Participants included the judges\, prosecutor and deputy prosecutor. Over the course of the two days\, members of staff were given the opportunity to learn from the experiences and lessons of colleagues from other international organisations and courts\, including the Extraordinary African Chambers (EAC) which had successfully prosecuted Hissène Habré in 2016.

SUMMARY:Capacity building for prosecutors to address the most serious and complex crimes under Nigerian criminal law
DESCRIPTION:Wednesday 15 March 2017 saw the close of the Wayamo Foundation’s second capacity-building workshop aimed at helping Nigerian prosecutors address the most serious and complex crimes under Nigerian criminal law. This forms part of a larger\, ongoing programme to strengthen justice and accountability in Nigeria\, which is being implemented by Wayamo\, the International Nuremberg Principles Academy and the Africa Group for Justice and Accountability in collaboration with the Nigerian Federal Ministry of Justice. \nJudging by the reactions of the participants and trainers alike\, the workshop was a resounding success\, with a hands-on\, interactive\, practice-oriented approach that allowed for some extremely lively and instructive discussion\, further insight into the international dimensions of the work involved\, and ample space for a series of challenging exercises\, purpose-designed to hone their prosecution skills and test their ability to work in teams on real case scenarios.
