520    Women judges are playing increasingly prominent roles in 
       many African judiciaries, yet there remains very little 
       comparative research on the subject. Drawing on extensive 
       cross-national data and theoretical and empirical analysis,
       this book provides a timely and broad-ranging assessment 
       of gender and judging in African judiciaries. Employing 
       different theoretical approaches, the book investigates 
       how women have fared within domestic African judiciaries 
       as both actors and litigants. It explores how women 
       negotiate multiple hierarchies to access the judiciary, 
       and how gender-related issues are handled in courts. The 
       chapters in the book provide policy, theoretical and 
       practical prescriptions to the challenges identified, and 
       offer recommendations for the future directions of gender 
       and judging in the post-COVID-19 era, including the role 
       of technology, artificial intelligence, social media, and 
       institutional transformations that can help promote 
       women's rights. Bringing together specific cases from 
       Kenya, Uganda, Ghana, Nigeria, Zambia, Tanzania, and South
       Africa and regional bodies such as ECOWAS and the African 
       Commission on Human and Peoples' Rights, and covering a 
       broad range of thematic reflections, this book will be of 
       interest to scholars, students, and practitioners of 
       African law, judicial politics, judicial training, and 
       gender studies. It will also be useful to bilateral and 
       multilateral donor institutions financing gender-sensitive
       judicial reform programs, particularly in Africa.
