Given the vast number of countries that make up the WHO African region, the study does not attempt to capture the jurisprudence of every country in this region. Rather, it focuses on mapping jurisprudence that is broadly representative of the WHO African region. In this regard, twelve African countries have been selected. These are: Cameroon, Eritrea, Ethiopia, Kenya, Lesotho, Malawi, Nigeria, South Africa, Tanzania, Uganda, and Zimbabwe. The criteria for selecting these countries are explained in Chapter 1 of this study. The study is not however, solely confined to these countries. The study also draws from countries that are outside the twelve countries for the purposes of illustrating trends or gaps"Pages: 259engWith permission of the license/copyright holderhuman rightssexual ethicsAfricaGlobal ethicsPolitical ethicsBioethicsDevelopment ethicsSocial ethicsSexual orientation/genderMedical ethicsHealth ethicsPreprint
