My experience at the Institute for Human Rights and Development in Africa (IHRDA) was challenging and rewarding. I always been deeply passionate about human rights and wanted to learn more about how human rights litigation process works on the ground. I collaborated with the team to draft submissions to the African Commission, conducted legal research on ECOWAS cases, and assisted with training and development activities. This experience gave me a pragmatic grasp of the human rights conditions on the ground, the type of challenges international legal mechanism is facing, and key areas to focus one to ensure human rights for all.
I would like to say a huge thank you to the Laidlaw Foundation and the Institute of Human Rights and Development in Africa for giving me the precious opportunity to take on the project. I am most grateful to Shraddha for your invaluable support and encouragements, thank you for your tremendous support all along the way. I genuinely can’t thank you enough!
