Resumen

Abstract:Taking as a starting point the observation that Tanzania has historically been a more effective nation-builder than Kenya, Gorham asks why that is the case, focusing on the construction of national narratives in state-run museum spaces to gain a better understanding of official nationalist pedagogy. State-run museums are spaces where states can articulate their vision of the nation, and by cataloging and analyzing the content of exhibits, one can better understand the different types of narratives constructed by states with diverging nation-building strategies. The narratives produced in museum sites in Tanzania and Kenya differ in terms of their consistency, clarity, and inclusivity.

Resumen

According to the assessment report from the Quality Assessment and Performance Improvement Strategy, it was identified that the staff members of the state corporations in Kenyan exhibited low performance levels, leading to a decline in employee satisfaction. The National Cohesion and Integration Commission (NCIC) audit report revealed disparities in race and ethnicity within the corporations. The primary objective of the research was to examine the impact of ethnic diversity on the performance of employees at the National Museum of Kenya. The research drew guidance from similarity/attraction theory. In the study, a descriptive cross-sectional survey design was employed. The total population comprised 550 employees at various personnel levels at the National Museum of Kenya headquarters. A population sample of 110 members was selected through Stratified random sampling. Data was collected using a semi-structured questionnaire administered to the chosen sample. To ensure the reliability of the instrument, Cronbach's Alpha was employed. Descriptive statistics was utilized for analysis of quantitative data, with the results presented through tables, figures, graphs, and prose. The research uncovered significant positive correlations between ethnic diversity and employee performance within the National Museum of Kenya. This underscores the importance of cultivating diversity when hiring personnel, as it contributes to enhanced performance. Furthermore, ensuring equal opportunities for promotion fosters employee motivation and dedication. To maximize the benefits of ethnic diversity, organizations should actively promote it and harness the collaborative potential of diverse work groups to improve both individual and organizational performance.

Resumen

Situated at the edge of the central business district in downtown Nairobi, the Kenya National Archives (KNA) is a reservoir and living example of historical and ethnographic knowledge. Straddling the boundary between “tourist” Nairobi and “real” Nairobi, the KNA inhabits a space that transcends both function and class in a cosmopolitan, urban setting. The archives look out on the landmark Hilton Hotel, together with the swarms of up-market tourists and wealthy locals it attracts. On the KNA's rear, Tom Mboya street serves a modern gateway to the crushing, chaotic avenues and alleys that the vast majority of Nairobi's citizens tread daily as they depart from and return to the stark realities of Nairobi's eastern slums. Engulfed by the wailing horns of passing matatus and the rhythmic calls of street hawkers, the spaces inside and outside the archive offer a rich terrain for social scientists interested in both contemporary and historical Kenya.The composition of the KNA's clientele also reflects the boundaries that the archives span. Throughout the day, international tourists and local schoolchildren trickle into the groundfloor museum (currently undergoing a major renovation supported by the Ford Foundation) to view the extensive collection of artifacts and photographs representing Kenya's diverse cultures and rich history. Tucked away upstairs, a broad spectrum of patrons works and studies in the archives' reading room, using the KNA's resources for a variety of professional and personal projects.

Resumen

This article deals with the representation of Kenyan national identity through dance. It analyses the reenactment of a series of ethnic dances at Bomas of Kenya, a cultural center located just outside Nairobi and part of the network of National Museums of Kenya. As an institution resulting from a strategic political investment in both Kenya's immaterial heritage and the tourist industry, since its inception in the early 1970s Bomas of Kenya has played an important role in conveying the idea of ethnic harmony and national unity. The comparison with Cut Off My Tongue (2009), the show by Kenyan writer and performer Sitawa Namwalie in which dance is interwoven with political satire to frame reflections on negative ethnicity, serves to highlight the implications that different approaches to dancing bodies, through such concepts as identity, embodiment, archive, and memory, could have for a meaningful political future.

Resumen

The Swahili word ‘kitambo’, which refers to occurrences in the past that are understood to be at least indirectly connected to the speaker, can be used to describe experimental museology through digital cultural heritage. There is a need to improve access and enhance conservation goals within African cultural heritage institutions, and the National Museums of Kenya (NMK) has been developing innovative technologies and communication tools with the Kenya Heritage Resource Information System (KEHRIS). This paper will discuss Digital Kitambo—a pilot project completed at NMK from 2013 – 2019 to create the spatially integrated database KEHRIS, digitise 10,000 artefacts and specimens from the archaeology and palaeontology collections, and develop digital learning programmes to engage a wider audience. Qualitative research methodology included participant observation, qualitative interviews and focus groups with museum staff as well as focus groups with primary and secondary teachers to develop curricula for local schools. This paper traces the evolution of Digital Kitambo from its inception and reflects on both the successes and shortcomings of the initiative with particular attention to its goals of decolonising the museum’s collections and contributing to new national narratives by engaging the public through digital initiatives.

Resumen

Knowledge is widely acknowledged as a pivotal asset, and various perspectives underscore the significance of effectively marshaling, deploying, and sharing knowledge within an organization for achieving organizational success. The National Museum of Kenya (NMK) was established with the primary goal of enriching knowledge and facilitating sustainable utilization of research information resources by stakeholders. However, the increasing diversification of knowledge sources has rendered content creation and knowledge management processes complex and laborious. Consequently, this complexity has resulted in inefficiencies throughout the knowledge management process, leading to inadequacies and disorganization. Despite the adoption of knowledge management systems, the integration of mobile phone technology in research activities at the museum has been neglected. This study aimed to scrutinize knowledge management practices at the NMK through the use of mobile apps, examine the associated challenges, and propose viable solutions. The study’s objectives were to investigate the challenges faced by researchers in generating knowledge and recommend feasible mobile technological solutions to address these challenges. The study was guided by the Knowledge Management Process Model, and employed a qualitative case study approach. The target population comprised researchers, knowledge managers, and ICT staff at the museum. Since this study was purely qualitative, data collection was achieved through interviews, and analyzed using narrative methods. The findings indicated that the NMK has implemented web-based systems supporting knowledge management activities. However, mobile phone technology has not been incorporated into any aspect of the museum’s knowledge management support tools. The study highlighted challenges such as; delayed data acquisition, misplacement of specimens, time consuming processes, data inaccuracies, and inefficiencies in knowledge management processes. Further, it was established that relying solely on web-based systems limits the flexibility of researchers in adapting to dynamic field conditions. Thus, this study recommends integrating mobile technologies into the knowledge management process at the National Museum of Kenya as a solution to the highlighted challenges. Mobile apps, known for their effectiveness and reliability, particularly in remote areas, offer a practical solution. This integration empowers researchers with more accessible and versatile tools, fostering improved content creation and knowledge management while ensuring inclusivity and efficiency, even in resource-constrained environments.

Resumen

Abstract There is an increasing global demand for existing natural history information for use in education, conservation, and policy formulation. Museum specimen collection records, being voluminous, are particularly significant in addressing such demands. This is even more critical in developing countries where daily human life is intimately linked to the environment. We demonstrate how existing museum specimen collection records were mobilized to highlight important animal pollinators in three East African countries. The bulk of the records were obtained from a Specify database of existing zoological collections held at the National Museums of Kenya, and the rest were from such alternative sources as published material, discussions with pollination experts, and online taxonomic portals and other tools. Identified to genus or species level, pollinator-ranking criteria encompassed region-wide distribution, number of plants pollinated, importance index of plants pollinated, and plant dependency on pollination. Overall, insects, especially Apis mellifera, were the most important pollinators in the region, pollinating the largest number of plants of diverse domestic, socioeconomic, and ecological significance. The results underscore potential use of specimen record-based informatics to guide agricultural and economic policy in East Africa.

Resumen

Cette recherche aborde la scène politique de deux pays d’Afrique de l’Est (Éthiopie-Kenya) en s’appuyant sur une analyse des enjeux politiques inhérents à la mise en place d’institutions mémorielles telles que les musées, les mausolées et autres lieux de mémoires. Notre thèse est que ces musées sont à comprendre avant tout comme des espaces intermédiaires de négociation entre les groupes qui les portent, l’État qui les finance ou les autorise, et les organisations internationales qui soutiennent et influencent les projets patrimoniaux des gouvernements. Cette recherche se concentre ainsi sur deux études de cas : le musée Konso en Éthiopie et le musée-mausolée de Koitalel Samoei au Kenya. Ces institutions s’inscrivent dans des contextes politiques particuliers au début des années 2000, à savoir l’application effective du pluralisme politique au Kenya et le renforcement de l’autoritarisme en Éthiopie. Au Kenya, la négociation autour de l’interprétation du passé en termes politiques se fait au sein même du musée-mausolée dédié au héros Koitalel Samoei, tandis que le cas éthiopien souligne plutôt que les rapports de pouvoir sont restructurés ou réorganisés par la présence d’un premier musée ethnographique en région, le musée Konso.L’apparition de musées communautaires témoigne, au Kenya comme en Éthiopie, d’un retour de l’identité ethnique en politique, qui est à la fois brandie comme une bannière par les gouvernements, mais également utilisée comme une catégorie opératoire ou une ressource par des acteurs particuliers, qu’on appellera ici des « entrepreneurs de patrimoine ». Par l’usage d’un nouveau capital, le patrimoine et sa préservation, ces « entrepreneurs de patrimoine » s’imposent ainsi à la fois comme des « entrepreneurs de soi » au sens de Michel Foucault, mais également comme des « entrepreneurs du nous » en politique, occupant une position graduelle dans les négociations et les prises de décisions publiques. Dès lors, il faut décentrer le regard pour s’intéresser à ce que le musée fait au politique, et non plus seulement à ce que la politique fait des musées.En incluant également l’analyse des usages politiques de la mémoire étatiques et internationaux, ce travail cherche à renverser la perspective en adoptant une entrée microsociologique et ethnographique en science politique, étudiant les déterminants et les modalités de la reconstruction nationale du point de vue des musées communautaires. Cette approche « par le bas », articulée aux niveaux d’analyse macro (État, idéologie, cadre institutionnel) et micro (les institutions et acteurs du patrimoine, les élites politiques locales) invite ainsi à une réflexion plus générale sur la construction, la qualification et les perceptions des régimes politiques, entamant une réflexion sur la nature de l’État qui se dévoile à travers ces nouvelles politiques mémorielles et patrimoniales, ainsi que sur le rôle joué par ces nouveaux « entrepreneurs de patrimoine » dans la reconfiguration de la compétition politique
This dissertation aims at understanding the political scene in two East African countries – Ethiopia and Kenya – by analysing the political dynamics surrounding the creation of memorial institutions such as museums, mausoleums and other memory spaces. I argue that these institutions must be first and foremost understood as intermediary spaces of negotiation between groups that are supporting them; the State that is financing and / or authorising them; as well as international organisations that are assisting and influencing the countries’ patrimonial policies. The two case studies of this research - the Konso Museum in Ethiopia and the museum-mausoleum of Koitalel Samoei in Kenya – are institutions that relate to specific political context: in Kenya, where political pluralism has been effectively accepted in the 2000s, the negotiation surrounding the political interpretation of the past takes place within the mausoleum-museum. In Ethiopia, where authoritarianism has been reinvigorated, local power relations are structured and reorganised by the presence of the South region’s first ethnographic museum.Both in Kenya and Ethiopia, the contemporary emergence of community museums illustrates the growing salience of ethnic identities in the political sphere – used as a resource and category of action both by the State and “patrimonial entrepreneurs”. By using a new kind of capital – heritage and its conservation – the latter strengthen their position both as “self entrepreneurs” (in the sense of Michel Foucault) and “we-entrepreneurs”, occupying an intermediary position in negotiations and public decision-making. Thus, we must look not only at what politics do to museums but also how museums do impact on political dynamics.In my research, through the study of community museums, I analyse the political uses of State and international memories, thus aiming at understanding the determinants and modalities of nation (re)building. I have adopted a microsociological and ethnographic approach within the framework political science. This “bottom-up” approach, articulated with macro levels of analysis (the State, ideologies and institutions) as well as micro levels (institutions and actors of heritage, local political elite) leads my argumentation to a larger debate on construction, qualification and perceptions of political regimes, the nature of the State as well as the role played by these new “patrimonial entrepreneurs” in the reconfiguration of political competition

Resumen

In designing a National Museum for the Imaging Arts, a dual obligation is created. It is to provide an intimate place for the cherishing of manifestations of the individual, while also creating, at the scale of the nation, a symbol of the civilization. Architecture accepts this obligation through the hierarchical scaling of the referents of order, material, space, and light.

Resumen

Between the National Gallery of Art and the National Museum of Natural History in Washington, D.C., the National Museum of Film and Photography design thesis explores issues of architecture at a scale of cultural significance. This thesis is the architectural manifestation of a museum as a research institution, separate from, yet contributing to an educational mission. It is inspired by the thin line between the two worlds, the public museum and the unseen, though often larger, private archive. In this thesis, a home for a treasury of artifacts was designed, so that they might be experienced, and for their intrinsic value. This design thesis explores the role of context, scale, and geometry in a building for the National Mall, as well as the critical requirements and specialized program of a museum. The orthogonal and radial geometry of the city are echoed in the plan. The building program, as well as the physical opportunities of the site, led to the form of the building. The simultaneous cycles of the artifact, the visitor, and the worker, and how they related to the role and amount of natural light also contributed to the form. The thesis is also developed based on the relationship between an object or a film, and a viewer.

Resumen

The purpose of this study was to examine the historical development of higher education in Kenya, since its independence in 1963, to determine the extent to which the original goals and objectives of the university education in Kenya are being met. To successfully complete this study and make relevant recommendations to the policy makers, the universities' demographics, academic programs, enrollment patterns, faculty and staff were examined. Education is recognized as the essential foundation for modern development. However, education cannot play this role unless its research is relevant to the needs of the country. Kenya's higher education has experienced dramatic changes in growth in the number of universities, massive enrollment of students, and diversification of the financial base for its universities. However, this growth in higher education went beyond the capacities of public universities. The growth in student enrollments opened opportunities for the establishment of private universities. The number of private universities increased from one in 1980 to now 17, with a total enrollment of about 10,000 students. To raise needed revenues for infrastructure and operations higher education institutions often host short courses, seminars, summer programs, and conferences. Businesses, governments, and non-governmental organizations are generally supportive of training schemes in highly regarded institutions. Universities should capitalize on their reputations and offer specializations and diversification of programs to enhance greater opportunities and other regional programs. Improved female participation in educational development and the cultural factor, as well as encouraging democratic processes in governance, would greatly enhance retention of well-qualified academic staff, and focused research activity should form the basis of human resources development.

Resumen

This paper examines issues that emerge in the attempts that have been made to develop the national language terminology in kenya by committees, Kiswahili enthusiasts and Kiswahili scholars. Attention is drawn to the fact that the problematic national language policy that emerges from the national language`s social history is an important backround to the issues that are discussed. The issues emerging in these attempts are examined in the prism of an encompassing terminology development framework that is synthesised from terminology development literature from different areas of the world. This framework views terminology development as a process that entails: formation of a language institute, setting up of goals, the actual engineering of the terms, the mode of dissemination and evaluation. The case of Kenya demonstrates that the attempts have so far consisted of isolated steps of terminology development rather than the whole set of required action.

Resumen

AbstractTraditionally managed socio-ecological production landscapes (SEPLs) provide communities with a range of goods and services vital for livelihoods, including nutrition and health. In Kenya, many of these landscapes, encompassing the resources therein and the indigenous knowledge vital for optimising their value, are now under threat.Utilising diverse traditional foods for the benefit of local communities has often been hampered by insufficient knowledge about the foods and negative attitudes towards them. For over two decades, a team from the National Museums of Kenya, Bioversity International, and their partners has been working with local communities to find out how local food resources can contribute more to community livelihoods, especially with regard to nutrition, health, and income. Understanding local food systems is a vital step. The team developed a methodology for involving local communities, and the youth in particular, to inventory their foodways. The documentation opened opportunities for research and development interventions. This chapter highlights three development and conservation case studies founded on foodways documentation: (1) promoting African leafy vegetables in Kenya; (2) safeguarding kitete (bottle gourd) by Kyanika Women’s Group in Kitui, Kenya; and (3) utilising digital technology to educate consumers about healthy eating using local foods.All cases have shown that converting underutilised local foods into main sources of nutrition and income opportunities, as well as conserving these foods in their environment, requires foodways documentation, community participation, and multi-stakeholder and multidisciplinary collaboration. Awareness on the nutritional and health benefits of local foods was a key incentive for their conservation and a catalyst for the change in attitudes and eating habits.

Texto completo

Resumen

The Cumberland Bone Cave is a public visitation stop along the Potomac Heritage National Scenic Trail renowned for its unique fossil resources that help reconstruct Appalachian middle Pleistocene life in the mid-Atlantic region of North America. This site is gated for safety and to prevent unwanted exploration and damage. Approximately 163 taxa of fossil plant and animals have been collected from Cumberland Bone Cave since 1912. Most of the fossils that have been published pertain to mammals, including many extinct or locally extirpated genera and species. Though the early excavations made by the Smithsonian Institution between 1912 and 1915 are the best known of the work at Cumberland Bone Cave, over many decades multiple institutions and paleontologists have collected and studied the fossil resources from this site up until 2012. Today, fossils from Cumberland Bone Cave are housed at various museum collections, including public displays at the National Museum of Natural History in Washington D.C. and the Allegany Museum in Cumberland, Maryland. This report summarizes the geology, fossil resources, and the history of excavation and research for Potomac Heritage Trail’s Cumberland Bone Cave.

Texto completo

Resumen

The subject of this article is a wooden stela (AAd6) kept in the National Museum of Denmark in Copenhagen. By iconographical and typological criteria, this object is datable to the 22nd Dynasty and probably comes from the Theban area. The stela displays several particularities, among others, one of the longest genealogies preserved on this object type. Alongside a careful investigation of the different iconographical elements and a new translation of the text, this contribution looks into the onomastic and the prosopographical material, examining different titles such as “ḥnk-nw.w-priest in southern Heliopolis” or “wab-priest in chief of the estate of Mut, the great one, the mistress of Isheru.” This study not only reconstitutes the family tree but also connects this object with three others, that are datable to a timeframe from the 21st Dynasty to the beginning of the 26th Dynasty. An excursus focusing on the painting sequence of the text and depictions contributes to a better understanding of the creation of wooden stelae in the Third intermediate Period.

Resumen

The Global Engagement of Museums in Canada examines Canadian museum diplomacy, assessing the international activities of Canadian museums to consider the ways these institutions act as cultural diplomats on the global stage. The report presents the results of a multi-partner collaborative research project addressing the work of ten institutions, including the Art Gallery of Alberta; Aga Khan Museum; Canadian Museum of History; Canadian Museum of Immigration at Pier 21; Montreal Museum of Fine Arts; Museum of Anthropology at UBC; National Gallery of Canada; Ottawa Art Gallery; Pointe-à-Callière, Montréal Archaeology and History Complex; and the Royal Ontario Museum. Focusing on the period of 2009 to 2019, this report highlights new activities and methods within museum practice, while also grounding these within the context of developments in the last decade. Drawing on archival research, document analysis, and interviews with museum professionals, this research establishes baseline data on the global reach of Canadian museums and identifies best practices to share with the museum sector and cultural diplomacy community. Comprised of three sections, the report begins by presenting the framework for the project, explaining the logic behind the selection of institutions and the pedagogical considerations that informed our collective methodology. Second, the report provides a review of the literature in the field of cultural diplomacy, situating the research project. And third, the core of the project, are ten studies of specific institutions, drawn from the fieldwork conducted by the team. These institutional reports demonstrate the ways in which museums engage with a range of global activities and actors. They further address developing trends in the sector, while also suggesting future avenues for research. The Global Engagement of Museums in Canada is a research project led by Primary Investigators Jeffrey Brison and Sarah E.K. Smith. Funded by a Mitacs Accelerate Grant, the initiative is a collaboration between the Montreal Museum of Fine Arts and Queen’s University.

Texto completo

Resumen

Ghana and Kenya were the first countries in sub-Saharan Africa whose governments recognized the potentially detrimental effects of rapid population growth on economic development and, as a result, adopted and implemented national population policies. This is one of three reports on the relationship between gender equity, family structure and dynamics, and the achievement of reproductive choice that was prepared by the Population Council for the 1994 International Year of the Family and the 1994 International Conference on Population and Development. These reports provide critical reviews of the relationship between gender inequality and demographic behavior in three demographically significant, culturally distinct parts of the developing world: Egypt, India, and Ghana and Kenya. Their purpose is to help governments and international agencies design and implement policies that are affirmative of women, sensitive to the family’s central role in resource allocation and distribution, and effective in achieving broad-based population and development goals.

Texto completo

Resumen

This research study across three countries – Kenya, UK, and Zimbabwe – was carried out to identify the dominant narratives that influence public perceptions of care and informal work. It enabled the researchers to develop and test new narratives that could be used to improve public attitudes towards care and informal work. Creating new stories about care and informal work is vital to securing adequate investment and support from communities, traditional leaders and governments.
