The Coalition for an Effective African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights (the Coalition), which comprises African and international non-governmental organisations (NGO) working in and on Africa, individuals and national human rights institutions in Africa, was formed in Niamey, Niger in May 2003 to advocate for an effective and efficient African Court on Human and Peoples' Rights.

The Coalition will be holding a panel discussion on the African Court at the Royal Swazi Sun in Ezulwini, Swaziland on 11 May 2008.
