Country Conditions & Human Rights - Africa Expert Witness

Country conditions experts provide the foundational evidence for most African asylum cases in UK tribunals. Reports synthesise Home Office COI, UNHCR, Amnesty International, and field research into authoritative, OSCOLA-cited analysis tailored to the specific claim.

Experts must address country guidance cases where applicable, identify departures from guidance, and provide current analysis that supplements or challenges Home Office CPIN positions.
