"Litigating the Right to Health in Africa provides an essential analysis of the right to health as is exists across the African region. Not only does the edited collection examine current trends in how socioeconomic rights are protected through national courts, but it also serves as a guidebook for future litigation efforts. Overall, Durojaye’s compilation will be of significant utility to those actors engaged in the work of advancing strategic health rights litigation in Africa and beyond."Ciara O’Connell,University of Sussex, Health and Human Rights Journal
