April 2021
It is with great sadness that we note the passing of the great Christof Heyns, our esteemed colleague and long-standing member of the editorial board the African Journal of International and Comparative Law. Prof Heyns was, as his colleagues in the University of Pretoria describe so well, a 'legal giant' in the human rights field. His contribution to the Journal over the years involved not only giving detailed editorial advice, but also his thoughtful reflections on the Journal’s development and strategic direction. We are honoured as a Board to have had the opportunity to work with him on the Journal and we will miss him deeply.

Our thoughts are with his family, friends and colleagues in Pretoria and around the world.
