Who we are
The Eastern Africa Association of Prosecutors (EAAP) is an organization of national prosecution authorities (corporate membership) that was established in 2010 with the founding members being national prosecution authorities of the East Africa Community (EAC), whose members were Burundi, Kenya, Rwanda, Tanzania and Uganda. The association later incorporated South Sudan when it became a Republic and a member of the EAC.
The Association is an independent, non-profit making and non-political body. Its mandate is to promote and facilitate cooperation among its member states through the detection, investigation and prosecution of crimes in the region, as well as to offer legal assistance to its members. Additionally, the association name was changed from the ‘East Africa Association of Prosecutors’ to the ‘Eastern Africa Association of Prosecutors’ in order to reflect the expanded scope of the association
