This article investigates the developments in the social justice function of clinical legal education in African countries. It is based on a systematic review conducted to provide conceptual, methodological and thematic guidance into scholarship on the utilisation of clinical legal education in African countries to meet justice needs of the indigent in society. The results are analysed and clustered into themes about scholarship on the law school, the university law clinic and challenges encountered in this endeavour. The narrative findings suggest an increased application of clinical legal education as a result of reforms in African law schools although this increase is not supported by a corresponding increase in related research and publication. The article therefore highlights gaps in knowledge and delineates a future trajectory by making suggestions for further research.

非洲临床法律教育的社会正义功能述评

本文调查了非洲国家临床法律教育的社会正义功能的发展。它基于一项系统审查,旨在为学术研究提供概念、方法和主题指导,以帮助非洲国家利用临床法律教育满足社会贫困人口的司法需求。对结果进行分析,并将其归类为有关法学院奖学金、大学法律诊所和在此努力中遇到的挑战的主题。叙述性调查结果表明,由于非洲法学院的改革,临床法律教育的应用有所增加,尽管相关研究和出版物的相应增加并未支持这种增加。
