dc.description.abstractDie doel van hierdie artikel is om die impak van die uitspraak in Centre for Minority Rights Development (namens Endorois) v Kenya (Endorois uitspraak) oor die verwesenliking van die reg to ontiwikkeling in Afrika se menseregte sisteem te ondersoek. Na ´n oorsig van die reg tot ontwikkeling, wat uit eie gekarakteriseer is deur omstredenheid, gaan die artikel voort om te wys hoe die Endorois uitspraak wegbeweeg van die uitspraak in die Social and Economic Rights Center and the Center for Economic and Social Rights v Nigeria (SERAC uitspraak), Democratic Republic of the Congo v Burundi, Rwanda, and Uganda (DRC uitspraak) en Kevin Mgwanga Gumne et al v Cameroon (Gumne uitspraak). Die Endorois uitspraak omksryf die konsep van “peoples”; maak duidelik wie die begunstigdes van die reg tot ontwikkeling is en beklemtoon die rol van die staat as die primêre pligdraer. Dit verduidelik ook die inhoud van die reg tot ontwikkeling wat veelsydig is omdat dit bestaan uit elemente van nie-diskriminasie, deelname, verantwoordingspligtigheid, deursigtigheid, regverdigheid en keuses asook vermoëns. Verder, verduidelik dit die drempel van mense se deelname benodig in die ontwikkelingspogings en beklemtoon die onmiddellike totstandkoming van menseregte soos omskryf in die African Charter on Human and Peoples Rights. Die Endorois uitspraak gee leiding oor hoe om die beregbaarheid van die reg tot ontwikkeling te verseker. Voor die Endorois uitspraak, is al hierdie eienskappe van die reg tot ontwikkeling nooit opgeklaar deur die Afrika-Kommissie in die SERAC, DRC en Gumne gevalle nie.af
dc.description.abstractThe communication Centre for Minority Rights Development (CEMIRIDE) (on behalf of the Endorois) v Kenya (Endorois case) decided by the African Commission on Human and Peoples’ Rights (African Commission or the Commission) in 2009 dealt with the violation of freedom of conscience and religion, the rights to property, to culture, to natural resources and the right to development (RTD) of indigenous peoples. This article focuses specifically on the RTD because not only is the RTD binding in the African Charter on Human and Peoples’ Rights (ACHPR); its justiciability was tested for the first time through the case under study.en
