Despite the President João Lourenço’s pledges to protect human rights, Angolan security forces continued to use excessive force against political activists and peaceful protesters.

Angola became the first African Union member state to ratify the Malabo Protocol, which provides jurisdiction over a number of crimes particularly significant for contemporary challenges and colonial legacies on the continent.
