A moment to remember!
The Annual Jurists Conference (AJC) 2026 brought together jurists, human rights defenders, scholars, policymakers and advocates from across the Global South in Kuala Lumpur, Malaysia, to reflect on the future of justice, human dignity and shared prosperity.
Under the theme “Beyond 1948: Forging a Global South Compact for Dignity, Sovereignty and Shared Prosperity,” the conference provided a platform for meaningful dialogue, knowledge exchange and collective action towards a more just and equitable world.
As we reflect on the conversations, connections and shared commitments, we remain inspired to advance justice and human rights across the Global South.

Nine days since the abduction and enforced disappearance of Advocate Abshir.
Nine days too long without answers, accountability or justice.
The continued disappearance of Advocate Abshir raises serious concerns about the safety of citizens and the protection of fundamental rights and freedoms.
We call for his immediate release, full accountability and an end to enforced disappearances in Kenya.

We remain deeply concerned that the Tanzanian opposition leader Tundu Lissu remains behind bars after the High Court acquitted him of treason but convicted him of an alternative charge of incitement and sentenced him to four years in prison.
As observed by ICJ Kenya Chairperson, Christine Alai, this development raises important questions about due process, the right to a fair trial and the administration of justice.
The rule of law demands that fundamental rights and freedoms be upheld at all times.

The High Court of Tanzania’s Dar es Salaam Sub-Registry is delivering its judgment in the treason case against CHADEMA national chairperson Tundu Lissu.
The proceedings commenced at 9:18 a.m. on Friday, 6 November 2026, before a three-judge panel led by Justice Dunstan Ndunguru, assisted by Justices James Karayemaha and Ferdinand Kiwonde.
He faces charges under Section 39(2)(d) of Tanzania’s Penal Code, which carries the death penalty.
ICJ Kenya reaffirms that the rule of law must remain the foundation of the administration of justice. Every accused person is entitled to the presumption of innocence, a fair trial, due process and an independent and impartial hearing, regardless of political affiliation or status.
Justice must be administered without fear, favour or political interference.
The rule of law must prevail.
