Professionalizing African Union Staff for Rule of Law Initiatives: As the AU moves more aggressively to establish norms and develop mechanisms to improve governance, address transnational crime, improve judiciary and law enforcement effectiveness, and promote the rule of law and human rights, AUC staff are looking to the United States to share best practices and lessons learned on technical matters.
