The 21st African Human Rights Moot Court Competition was held from 1 to 6 October at the Universidade Eduardo Mondlane of Maputo, Mozambique. It was organised jointly by the host university and the University of Pretoria's Centre for Human Rights. Sixty teams competed in the competition, from law faculties all over the African continent. The competing teams are divided into three language groups: Anglophone, Francophone, and Lusophone.

UCT competed in the Anglophone group, which had 44 teams in all, representing more than 12 African countries. Our mooters, Lerato Ramotsamai and Themba Chauke, placed fourth overall out of the 44 teams in the English group, with the second-highest team oral score, and in the top five written memorials. The team was coached by Dr. Hannah Woolaver, a lecturer in the Public Law Department.
