UCTD Protectors of Marginalized groups Vulnerable groups Rights Thesis (LLM (Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa)) -- University of Pretoria, 2010. A dissertation submitted to the Faculty of Law University of Pretoria, in partial fulfilment of the requirements for the degree Masters of Law (LLM in Human Rights and Democratisation in Africa). Prepared under the supervision of Dr. Kwadwo Appiagyei-Atua, Faculty of Law, University of Ghana, Ghana. 2010. Marginalized and vulnerable groups have always existed in societies. Such groups have always needed protectors of their rights. In democratic countries institutions have had to be established to ensure that the rights of these groups are protected. National Human Rights Institutions (NHRIs) are part of these institutions. NHRIs are important and vital as they 'serve as independent bodies for the protection and promotion of human rights‘. http://www.chr.up.ac.za/ Centre for Human Rights LLM 2011-06-09T08:44:50Z 2011-06-09T08:44:50Z 2010 Mini Dissertation Mtshali, LA 2010, Protection of women's rights in Africa through national human rights institutions (NHRIs) : a case study of Ghana and the Republic of South Africa, LLM Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/16746> Mtshali, LA 2010, Protection of women's rights in Africa through national human rights institutions (NHRIs) : a case study of Ghana and the Republic of South Africa, LLM Mini Dissertation, University of Pretoria, Pretoria, viewed yymmdd <http://hdl.handle.net/2263/16746> http://hdl.handle.net/2263/16746 en LLM Dissertations Centre for Human Rights University of Pretoria application/pdf University of Pretoria
