African Judges have gathered in Nairobi to take stock of their performance and to discuss how to repurpose the institution of Judiciary to facilitate continental transformation and progress.

Under their organisation, Africa Judges & Jurists Forum, the judge's inaugural meeting opened by Chief Justice Martha Koome, exchanged experiences on promoting independence, growing jurisprudence, promoting electoral justice, and protection of civic space among others.
