The African Centre for Democracy and Human Rights Studies (ACDHRS) is
independent, non-profit regional human rights NGO based in Banjul, The Gambia. It
was initially set up in 1989 by an Act of Parliament of the Republic of The Gambia.
However, 1995, the African Centre was re-launched, thereby repealing the Act, and
thus making the Centre a truly independent pan-African NGO.
The Centre seeks to uphold and promote Article 25 of the African Charter on Human
and Peoples’ Rights. It facilitates in collaboration with partners across the continent &
globally to protect human rights and democracy with special emphasis on gender
equality, governance, development and peace.

all men, women, and children are respected in accordance with democratic principles.
The Centre engages in the following activities:
