Аннотация

The article deals with human rights protection within the Southern African Development Community (SADC). The Tribunal of SADC was the main body in the ground of human rights protection in the sub-region. Unfortunately, It was shutdown in 2010 because of the discordances between the heads of States and Governments and the Tribunal. This situation occurred because of the massive complains against the Republic of Zimbabwe, alleging human rights violations.
