Ogweno, Josphat. "Meanings of Emerging Discourses From Kenyas’ Mainstream Press Mediatization of Sino-Kenya Relations". Journal of Advance Research in Social Science and Humanities (ISSN: 2208-2387) 7, nr 6 (30.06.2021): 01–14. http://dx.doi.org/10.53555/nnssh.v7i6.987.

Theoretically, the Kenyan press tends to be superficial in mediatizing Sino-Kenya relations. It is important therefore that the Kenyan mainstream press goes beyond the superficial mediatization of events on Sino-Kenya relations to play both a critical, inclusive, democratic and developmental role that suits the African continent. The tightening, multilevel and overarching social, political and economic relations are to a certain extent dependent on a critical analysis of the Kenyan mainstream press. The relation however is exhibited by the Kenyan mainstream press superficially and therefore the need to have a critical analysis of the selected newspapers. The study used the political economy and the mediatization theories to critically explore and get the discourses in the selected Kenyan Newspapers’ mediatization of Sino-Kenya relations. This study therefore aimed at investigate the meanings of emerging discourses from Kenyas’ mainstream press mediatization of Sino-Kenya relations. The study sought to answer the following question, what are the meanings of emerging discourses from Kenyas’ mainstream press mediatization of Sino-Kenya relations? An explorative research design approach was adopted to address the question of meditization by the mainstream press on Sino-Kenya relations. Triangulation approach was used in the analysis. A two-step purposive sampling method was used in selecting first, the newspapers because they are market leaders and they are the newspapers that covered broadly the relations and then the period of study. The study evaluated three newspapers: The Daily Nation, The Standard and The Star. The study analysed articles in the newspapers between the year 2015 and 2019. Finally, relevant content was sampled that produce a sample size of 70 newspapers and 3 journalists and 3 Chief Editors who were purposefully sampled. Interviews were conducted with key informants and analyzed qualitatively while the coding sheet was used in collecting data then analysed quantitatively to record the frequency of occurrence of the identified nature of mediatization and qualitatively to study the meanings of emerging discourses, use of attributive words, pictures, and discussions and their inherent meanings from the discourses. The identified nature of mediatization were found to be fused with ideological undertones that served in mediatizing the Sino-Kenya relations. The results indicated that articles adopted neutral tone whose implication was a dual beneficial relation. The study suggested that the editorial policies of publishing houses should also be points of focus in future studies and should have a deeper discussion in its contents.

Kenya became a primary destination for the prosecution of pirates captured off the coast of Somalia from late 2008 to late 2009. Yet none of the pirates being tried in Kenya as of April 2010 were captured by Kenyan armed forces but, rather, by non-Kenyan forces whose countries had signed agreements with Kenya for it to conduct such trials. In Resolution 1851 of December 16, 2008, the United Nations Security Council had urged states and regional organizations to enter into such agreements. Kenya accordingly concluded agreements on prosecuting suspected pirates with the United Kingdom, the United States, the European Union, and Denmark. According to media reports, and as Kenya recently acknowledged, two others were negotiated, with China and Canada. Only the EU-Kenya agreement has been published. The British foreign secretary told the House of Commons that Kenya did not want its agreement with the United Kingdom to be made public. Consequently, it may well be that a Kenyan preference for secrecy prevented the public release of information on the other agreements signed by Kenya.

Coffee farming in Kenya is a major source of income for over 800,000 farmers. Globally, the Kenyan coffee is renowned for its high quality. Most of the Kenyan coffee is produced in the Mt. Kenya region. Its production faces many challenges that include infestation by a complex of insect pests. A field survey covering eight (8) main coffee-growing counties and 485 households in the Mt. Kenya region was conducted in May 2022. The survey aimed to establish the key insect pests in the region, and their distribution and management practices applied by the farmers. The survey established eight (8) insect pests as of major importance in the region. These included the Coffee Berry Borer (Hypothenemus hampei), Thrips (Diarthrothrips coffeae), Leaf miners (Leucoptera spp), Yellow Headed Borer (Dirphya nigricornis), White Borer (Anthores leuconotus), Green scales (Coccus alpinus), Kenya Meallybugs (Planococcus kenyae) and Antestia bugs (Antestiopsis spp). Their occurrence ranged from 5 to 66%. The C. alpinus (66%) occurred in all the surveyed counties, Agro-Ecological Zones (AEZs) and coffee farms’ households. The D. nigricornis (57%) was the second most common insect pest. The C. alpinus, D. nigricornis, Leucoptera spp and H. hampei dominated the “Lower” coffee zone and were less dominant in Upper Midland 1(UM 1). Farmers used insecticides, plant extracts, and physical, mechanical, cultural, and field sanitation approaches to control the pests. Insecticides at 79% was the most widespread practice used by coffee farmers. This study and its findings are key to Agricultural extension services in providing focused technical advisory services to coffee farmers based on specific insect pests per the Agro-Ecological Zones from the Mt Kenya region. Keywords: Agro-ecological zones, insect pests, infestation, management practices.

This paper is both a personal and an academic reflection on my work as a U.S.-trained Kenyan anthropologist directing a study-abroad program for American undergraduate students in Kenya. It is an attempt to address three main issues: First is to understand why students choose to come to Kenya and what they hope to achieve by studying here. Second is to get a sense of what kind of prior images and information these students have of Kenya and Africa and how this influences their interaction with Kenya. Third is to understand how I as a Kenyan anthropologist trained in America balance the tasks of cultural broker and teacher of students in Kenya as is demanded of my position as director of a study-abroad program.

This paper interrogates Kenyan politics through the lenses of Niccolo Machiavelli’s ideas on political power. It analyses the relevance of Machiavelli’s political ideas, as they have applied by different political leaders in Kenya. It pays special attention at how over the years Kenyan politicians at the helm of Kenyan political stage, the state house, have shrewdly mastered and used religion channelise politics of their times. Colonial rule in Kenya witnessed the emergence of a profoundly unbalanced institutional landscape and underdevelopment. With all capacity resided in a strong prefectural provincial administration, political parties remained underdeveloped making Kenyan politics to be leader centred. Politics is perceived as a game in which interests clash and political leaders attempt to establish stability amid conflicting interests. This reality is captured in the ideas of Machiavelli, whose works in political philosophy created the ideological ground for the emergence of Machiavellianism. The most significant aspect of colonialism in Kenya was political domination control, underdevelopment and authoritarianism. Colonialism in Kenya between 1895-1963 was characterized by economic exploitation and colonial expression. Sadly, the spectre of repression, exploitation and underdevelopment persisted in independent Kenya all against the hopes Kenyans had at independence. In this work, we argue that the post independence history of Kenya is replete with key aspects of Machiavelli’s conception of political power, ‘ misuse’ of religion by leaders and glaring underdevelopment all in the name of managing politics. Therefore, this paper examines the application of Machiavellian principles in the independent Kenya between 1963 and 2007.

This paper highlights the origin of the stock market in Kenya, and traces the reforms that have been undertaken to develop the stock market. It also highlights the growth of the Kenyan stock market, as well as the challenges currently facing the market. The country has one stock market, known as the Nairobi Securities Exchange (formerly the Nairobi Stock Exchange). It is one of Africas largest stock markets. Since the early 1980s, a number of stock market reforms have been implemented in Kenya. These include the formation of a regulatory body (Capital Markets Authority CMA) in 1989, the replacement of the "Call-Over" trading system by the floor-based "Open-Outcry System" in 1991, the reduction of listing costs, the relaxation of the exchange control for locally controlled companies, and the repeal of the Exchange Control Act. Following these reforms, Kenyas stock market has developed significantly in terms of market capitalisation, the total value of stocks traded, and the turnover ratio. Although the stock market in Kenya has developed over the years, like many other developing countries' markets, it still faces a number of wide-ranging challenges.

As a region prone to conflict, an Introduction to peace is mainly essential for Kenya. The government projects that education can build a peaceful Kenya. As a result, the government is allocating an amount of budget to improve education in Kenya especially in eradicating violence and maintaining peace – especially, post-election violence and sexual abuse. The government has also adopted a UNICEF program, the Peace Education Program (PEP). The government's ambition is limited to designing a system that is only effective in some areas. Therefore, UNICEF complements the government’s effort to carry out policies of a peaceful education system and conduct action research. The efforts coming from the cooperation between UNICEF and the Kenyan government will also be adjusted to the Neoliberal institutionalism theory. This theory is essential to adjust the role of UNICEF in empowering and assisting the Kenyan government while Kenya still upholds its own interests. This paper will mainly focus on the research of the Peace Education Program in Kenya and how UNICEF assist and support its implementation. Keywords: Peace Education Program (PEP);Kenya; Children; UNICEF

Abstract Economic cooperation between the US and Kenya has reflected the ups and downs in the relations between the two countries. Since independence, both countries have converged on security issues and diverged on questions of democracy and human rights. When Barack Obama was elected as the President of the US, Kenya expected to get an “Obama bonus” in the form of closer trade and investment cooperation. This article analyzes what is the image of US–Kenya economic relations in the news discourse. The analysis reveals that three different and competing narratives are present in the news discourse in Kenya. The US disseminates a narrative that economy, security, good governance and human resources are four interconnected and mutually reinforcing pillars of African development; Kenya must make progress in all these four pillars, and the US is ready to help Kenya. Kenyan leaders seem to internalize the economic part of the narrative and accept the nexus between economy and security, but they reject the nexus between economy and political issues. Finally, the Kenyan society internalizes both these narratives, albeit to a different degree, with the latter prevailing over the former. However, it also produces its own narrative, which presents current US–Kenya economic relations in a different perspective. The whole US engagement in Kenya hardly goes beyond the symbolical level. It is driven by US economic interests and competition with China, while there is no “Obama bonus” for Kenya.

Abstract Achievement of the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) is contingent on understanding the potential interactions among human and natural systems. In Kenya, the goal of conserving and expanding forest cover to achieve SDG 15 “Life on Land” may be related to other SDGs because it plays a role in regulating some aspects of Kenyan precipitation. We present a 40-yr analysis of the sources of precipitation in Kenya and the fate of the evaporation that arises from within Kenya. Using MERRA-2 climate reanalysis and the Water Accounting Model 2 layers, we examine the annual and seasonal changes in moisture sources and sinks. We find that most of Kenya’s precipitation originates as oceanic evaporation but that 10% of its precipitation originates as evaporation within Kenya. This internal recycling is concentrated in the mountainous and forested Kenyan highlands, with some locations recycling more than 15% of evaporation to Kenyan precipitation. We also find that 75% of Kenyan evaporation falls as precipitation elsewhere over land, including 10% in Kenya, 25% in the Democratic Republic of the Congo, and around 5% falling in Tanzania and Uganda. Further, we find a positive relationship between increasing rates of moisture recycling and fractional forest cover within Kenya. By beginning to understand both the seasonal and biophysical interactions taking place, we may begin to understand the types of leverage points that exist for integrated atmospheric water cycle management. These findings have broader implications for disentangling environmental management and conservation and have relevance for large-scale discussions about sustainable development.

Kenyan university students have performed relatively poorly compared to their counterparts in Australia and the United Kingdom when it has come to International sports participations. Could this be attributed to the personnel handling sports at the Kenyan Universities? This study went out to look at the perceptions of the students participating in sports at public and private universities in Kenya. Further, the study went out to look at the qualifications and quantification of personnel in both private and public universities in Kenya. The study used a descriptive research design. A questionnaire was used on 268 students responded. An interview schedule was used on 10 directors and chairmen of sports directorates and departments. A further 28 sports personnel in public and private universities in Kenya were also used in the study. The results indicate that personnel in Kenyan University had diverse field of training. There was need to arrest this diversity and create a more focused sports trained personnel if the Kenyan university expect to make the same impact as that of Australia and the United Kingdom in international sport. Results also show that private universities in Kenya have better and available personnel than the public universities.

Ganz allgemein zeigen die Ergebnisse dieser Untersuchung, dass die gegenwärtige Lage der Bibliotheken in staatlichen Universitäten durch extrem geringe Ressourcen für die Bücher-, Zeitschriften und Mediensammlungen und hinsichtlich Ausstattung und Personal gekennzeichnet. Private Universitäten haben diese Probleme in weit geringerem Maße. Unter Studierenden, Lehrenden und Universitätsbeamten ist durchaus die Ansicht verbreitet, dass Universitätsbibliotheken eine entscheidende Rolle in Lehre, Forschung und Studium spielen. Man nimmt allerdings auch zur Kenntnis, dass die Universitätsbibliotheken in Kenia, besonders diejenigen der staatlichen Universitäten, keine wirkungsvollen Dienstleistungen erbringen. Dies hat zur Entwertung ihrer Rolle in der Hochschullandschaft geführt. Die Studie zeigt, dass die moderne Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik in die kenianischen Universitätsbibliotheken Einzug gehalten hat. Doch ist die Entwicklung zum einen durch die Finanzierungslücken behindert worden, sodass Computer nicht angeschafft und Netze nicht aufgebaut werden konnten, zum anderen durch das Fehlen von geschultem EDV-Personal und durch die kümmerliche Telekommunikations-Infrastruktur im Lande. Diese Untersuchung kommt zu dem Ergebnis, dass Maßnahmen erforderlich sind, die Situation der Universitätsbibliotheken in Kenia zu verbessern - dies auch als ein Weg, die Qualität des Universitätsstudiums in Kenia zu steigern. Diese Maßnahmen umfassen zunächst die Aufnahme einer langfristigen Planung auf allen Gebieten bibliothekarischer Arbeit. Zweitens sollten die leitenden Bibliothekare die zentrale Bedeutung der Bibliotheken hervor heben, welche ihnen im Zusammenhang der gesamten Universität zukommt. Um nutzbare Quellen der Information zu bleiben, müssen die Universitätsbibliotheken in Kenia, die moderne Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik einsetzen. Die Anwendung neuer Informations- und Kommunikationstechnik kann den Bibliothekaren an den Universitäten helfen, besseren Zugang zu örtlichen und zu globalen Informationen zu schaffen, zum Beispiel durch elektronische Media und Internetzugang.This study argues that the provision of library services in Kenyan public universities is characterised by extremely inadequate resources in terms of funds, information materials, equipment and staff. Private university libraries experience these problems albeit to a lesser degree. Although there is widespread opinion among students, lecturers as well as university administrators that university libraries play a critical role in the teaching, research, and learning activities, there is also awareness that university libraries in Kenya, especially those in public universities are not effectively providing services which has limited their role in research and learning in the university. Finally, modern information and communication technology is being incorporated in the management of university libraries in Kenya. However, this trend has been hindered by first, lack of funds to purchase equipment such as computers and set up networks, secondly by lack of skilled personnel in information technology, and finally by poor telecommunications infrastructure in the country. There is therefore need for adoption of strategic planning in all areas of library management and to remain viable sources of information, university libraries in Kenya have to make use modern information and communication technology. This will enable university libraries to facilitate better access to local and global information for example through electronic and internet media.

Selon des enquêtes réalisées au cours de la dernière décennie, la distribution géographique de l’infection à VIH-Sida à Nairobi serait marquée par des disparités qui coïncident avec les fortes inégalités socio-économiques et résidentielles qui dessinent la géographie de la pauvreté urbaine dans la capitale. L’infection à VIH-Sida a-t-elle trouvé un terreau favorable à sa transmission et à sa diffusion dans les zones d’habitat spontané qui parcourent la capitale et se développent selon un rythme impulsé par l’histoire et la géographie économique, politique et démographique du Kenya depuis l’indépendance ? La notion de crise urbaine pourrait être une clé de lecture de la distribution géographique de l’infection à VIH/sida à Nairobi. Cependant, au Kenya, la pauvreté, symptôme essentiel du phénomène de crise urbaine, ne se profile pas comme un déterminant systématique de la vulnérabilité à l’infection à VIH. La non-circoncision, les maladies sexuellement transmissibles (MST), les inégalités de genre et la violence conjugale ; la polygamie, interviennent également dans la diffusion de l’infection au Kenya. L’objectif de cette recherche est de démontrer la pertinence du concept de crise urbaine pour qualifier les contextes sociaux, économiques et urbains de Nairobi et l’impact des symptômes de cette crise urbaine sur les facteurs d’exposition et de transmission de l’infection à VIH. Ma recherche s’appuie sur une grille d’interprétation dont la pierre angulaire est formée par les manifestations de ce phénomène de crise, sans évacuer toutefois le poids de facteurs qui lui sont exogènes, qu’ils soient de nature socio-culturelle, démographique ou encore politiqueAccording to different surveys conducted during the last decade, the geographical distribution of HIV-AIDS in Nairobi would be characterised by disparities which coincide with the geography of urban poverty in Nairobi. The HIV prevalence seems to be higher in Nairobi slums compared to Nairobi as a whole. In the mean time, in Kenya poverty is not a systematic determinant of vulnerability to HIV/AIDS. To which extent can we explain HIV/AIDS disparities by poverty and urban crisis phenomenon epitomized by Nairobi slums ? The first objective of this research is to demonstrate the relevance of urban crisis concept to qualify the social, economic and urban context of Nairobi. The second objective is to find out links between urban crisis effects and factors associated to HIV/AIDS in Nairobi slums. My research is based on a model consisting of different effects of urban crisis –poverty, informal settlement, violence- and consider cultural and political factors as well

Au cours de cette thèse nous avons cherché à porter un regard critique sur les systèmes d'éducation et de formation au Kenya, à étudier les modes d'accès à l'apprentissage et à analyser les processus d'intégration professionnelle. Cette recherche nous a permis de fournir les propriétés sociales des individus, d'illustrer la représentation de leur parcours et de rendre compréhensible leur rapport à l'apprentissage en fonction du cadre de référence défini par un système de contraintes qui résulte des dysfonctions de l'éducation scolaire associées aux problèmes d'insertion professionnelle des jeunes sans qualifications. La reconstitution des étapes menant aux activités de production de biens et de service, appelés Jua Kali à Nairobi, révèle la forte dépendance des jeunes envers leur milieu d'appartenance. Les entretiens ont permis de mettre en relief des logiques d'action plus ou moins stables, en continuité ou en rupture par rapport aux facteurs déterminants et aux étapes marquantes des itinéraires des apprentis. Ces logiques rendent compte du procès de socialisation, selon le degré d'acceptation ou de refus soit de l'activité soit du milieu Jua Kali, et montrent que l'entrée en apprentissage n'est pas toujours un choix mais résulte d'un ensemble de contraintes socioéconomiques. Cela traduit en même temps les possibilités d'avenir en fonction de la représentation de soi et des projets envisages par les jeunes. Pendant qu'ils acquièrent des qualifications techniques et participent à la production, les jeunes anticipent leur avenir en intériorisant les références symboliques du statut d'artisan indépendant. Atteindre ce statut confère une reconnaissance sociale valorisante aux yeux des petits producteurs qui revendiquent l'identité Jua Kali à travers la symbolique de l'indépendance. Les individus intériorisent le modèle de l'artisan indépendant en raison des incertitudes du marché du travail ou pour marquer leur autonomie à l'égard du milieu d'appartenance.

Makala haya yanatathmini iwapo ukuzaji na uendelezaji wa Kiswahili nchini Kenya unategemea shughuli za kuiendeleza lugha hii zinazofanywa na Tanzania ama unatokana na kutegemeana baina ya mataifa haya katika kukikuza na kukiendeleza Kiswahili. Baadhi ya njia za kuiendeleza lugha zinajumuisha: kuisanifisha, kuifanyia utafiti na kuiimarisha kwa kuitungia kamusi, vitabu vya sarufi, kazi za kisanaa na kuitumia serikalini, mahakamani, katika elimu n.k. Makala haya yanaonyesha kuwa ingawa kuna utegemeano kati ya Kenya na Tanzania katika ukuzaji na uendelezaji wa Kiswahili, Tanzania inategemewa zaidi. Hususan inadhahirishwa kuwa Kenya imeitegemea Tanzania kwa kuagizia machapisho, wataalamu wa Kiswahili mbali na kutumia istilahi na hata kuchuma nafuu mifano ya Tanzania katika utumishi wa umma. Fauka ya hayo, inaonyeshwa kuwa pale ambapo Kenya haijafaidi kutokana na ufanisi wa Tanzania, ikiiga mfano wa Tanzania, upo uwezekano wa kufaulu.

The fashion industry in Kenya is slowly growing. The middleclass is getting bigger and theinterest for fashion among these consumers is increasing. One major problem for the growthof the industry is the extensive second hand trade, which has given several problematicaffects. The textile production has almost disappeared, the western influences are evident andthe consumer’s price sensitivity is prominent.The aim of this thesis is, by conducting a field study; to qualitative examine how to develop astrong domestic fashion brand on the Kenyan market and to give a foundation for a brandingstrategy for people involved within fashion in Kenya. Some of the major findings for thisthesis are; the excessive second hand trade and its negative affect on the domestic fashionindustry, the less developed fashion environment, the growing interest for fashion amongKenyan consumers and the low credibility the consumers have for domestic brands.Program: Textilekonomutbildningen

Agricultural biodiversity, commonly referred to as agrobiodiversity, is that part of biodiversity that is geared towards agriculture and food production. Agrobiodiversity is said to contribute much to food and nutrition, but there is lack of data confirming this, particularly from Eastern Africa. To assess the extent of agrobiodiversity on smallholder farms and in local markets and to connect these to food intake and perceptions of food security among smallholder farmers in Western Kenya, the thesis asks four main research questions: (i) What is the extent of food plant diversity in smallholder farms, the bio-physical and socio-economic factors influencing it and the contribution of this diversity to the household's food needs? (ii) What is the relationship between agricultural and dietary diversity? (iii) What linkages are there between agricultural and nutritional diversity? (iv) How does access to agrobiodiversity in local markets contribute to meeting household food needs and what is the extent of smallholder farmers' integration into these markets? Through a combination of focus group discussions, farm and market surveys conducted across three time points, results indicate that: (i) higher food plant species richness is found on farms managed by wealthier and older households. However, these households are not more food secure than the rest, (ii) while there is a lack of a strong relationship between agricultural and dietary diversity, dietary diversity is instead significantly influenced by socio-economic factors including a household's wealth status, ethnicity and education level, (iii) despite a diversity of locally available on-farm and market food species meeting existing macro-and micro-nutrient needs, there is a general lack of understanding of this diversity as food shortage months coincide with a lack of maize despite high availability of a diversity of other foods not only to replace the maize but also to contribute to a diverse diet, (iv) smallholder farmers rely on multiple food sources, with markets mainly for sourcing cereals, fruits and animal source foods. There is also low integration of smallholder farmers as sellers in local markets. Together, the four case studies show interlinkages across food availability, accessibility and utilisation, which when addressed with equal weight, could unlock local agrobiodiversity's potential as a path to food and nutrition security of smallholder farming households.

ABSTRACT The objective of this research paper was to explore the health, safety, sustainability and social responsibility during disposal of cutting and drilling fluids in Kenya in regard to what affects the choice of method of disposal, the Kenyan government's regulatory requirements on disposal of the drilling wastes, methods of addressing drilling wastes, ways of reducing the volume of wastes, hierarchy of drilling wastes and the pros and cons of various methods of addressing drilling wastes. A comprehensive case study of the approach taken in Kenya with regard to handling of drilling wastes was done. Description for each approach used is provided as obtained through interviews, internet and questionnaires and statistics. Complete tables and graphs are provided and the methods are described in detail to permit readers to understand all results. The choice of method of disposal is determined and affected largely by the government policy and also by economic, technical and operation conditions and barriers. Methods of disposal included injection, thermal treatment, bioremediation, land application. This paper gives the best ways of disposal. A comprehensive description of the Kenyan government regulations is given as indicated in the Kenya Gazette, NEMA and UNEP. This paper gives insight to the acceptable drilling wastes disposal practices in Kenya and are also generally largely applicable other nations. In conclusion, it was found that Kenya would benefit from passing its own laws to regulate disposal in the coming days.

The Kenya Space Agency Strategic Plan 2020-2025 identified the need for capacity building in infrastructure and human resource as a priority focus area to enable Kenya to tap into the potential of the space industry. With this in mind, several initiatives were put forth to encourage innovation, education and awareness on space related matters. The concept of Space Clubs in Kenya was mooted in 2020 as an education and outreach program that comprises of interactive scientific activities, competitions, events and learning sessions with students from schools around Kenya. The Space Club initiative is aimed at creating awareness and interest on Geography, Science, Engineering, Arts and Mathematics by educating the next generation of learners on the significance of these subjects in supporting the space industry. It seeks to broaden and enhance the quality of education for Kenyan students and allow them to understand and actively pursue the opportunities that Space related disciplines portend for them. With the support of teachers in primary school (our current target audience) in Kenya, KSA has created an all-rounded program that encompasses a variety of aspects pertaining to space. The initiative has identified and prioritized four disciplines that are critical for the advancement and growth of Kenya’s space sector. These include; Space Systems Engineering, Information Technology and Robotics, Space Science and Astronomy and Earth Observation. The development of the initial learning and training content on these focus areas was concluded in November 2021. The first phase of the project has seen the development of 12 topical student’s books and 4 comic books. These materials, which are under review, will be free for use and will be hosted on the Kenya Space Agency website. Since July 2021, the Space Club team has been hosting a mentorship and training program aligned with these focus disciplines. The Space Club team use of tools such as Cubesat models, water rockets, robotics kits, telescopes and portable planetariums to engage students in hands-on activities.These events have elicited a lot of interest and curiosity amongst students with many expressing interest in Space related careers. The team has noted the significance of student mentorship for the space industry and would recommend that programs of a similar nature be developed, more especially in developing countries, to build a strong foundation for the growth of a vibrant and indigenous Space industry.

Abstract The Kenyan photovoltaic industry has been growing steadily in recent years. Since 1990 more than 2.5 megawatts of photovoltaic capacity have been sold in Kenya and 60% of these sales have gone into home systems as part of new energy supplies. The demand for energy in Kenya exceeds the supply and for this reason renewable energy is regarded a priority in the energy sector. A solution to this problem lies in four areas: technology development, environmental protection, energy economics and socio-cultural adjustments. This paper discusses the state of current research and applications of stand-alone building-integrated PV home systems by looking at the possibilities and limitations in this developing country. Houses need a PV panel-surface area of about 36m2 to meet basic energy needs.

[This Proceedings paper was revised and published in the 2019 issue of the journal Issues in Informing Science and Information Technology, Volume 16] Aim/Purpose: This study aims to answer the research question titled What are the competencies required for the Business Process Analyst (BPA) role in organizations with ERP systems in Kenya. Through 4 hypotheses, this study focuses on two specific aspects: (1) Enhancing BPM Maturity and (2) ERP implementation. Background: The emergence of complex systems and complex processes in organizations in Kenya has given rise to the need to understand the BPM domain as well as a need to analyze the new roles within organizational environments that drive BPM initiatives. The most notable role in this domain is the BPA. Furthermore, many organizations in Kenya and across Africa are making significant investments in ERP systems. Organizations, therefore, need to understand the BPA role for ERP systems implementation projects. Methodology: This study uses a sequential mixed methods approach analyzing quantitative survey data followed by the analysis of qualitative interview data. Contribution: The main contribution of this study is a description of competencies that are critical for the BPA in Kenya both in terms of enhancing BPM maturity and for driving ERP systems implementations. In addition, this study sheds light on critical BPA competencies that are perceived to be undervalued in the Kenyan context. Findings: Findings show that business process orchestration competencies are important for driving BPM maturity and for ERP systems implementations. This study found that business process elicitation, business analysis, business process improvement and a holistic overview of business thinking are often overlooked as critical competencies for BPAs but are nevertheless critical for building the BPA practitioner. Recommendations for Practitioners: From this study, practitioners such as top managers and BPAs can be enlightened on the specific competencies that require focus when carrying out BPM and when implementing ERP systems projects. Future Research: The next step is to investigate the interventions that organizations implement to build their BPA competencies. The main aim of this would be to describe those interventions that impact the requisite BPA competencies especially those competencies that were seen to be undervalued within the Kenyan context.

Cancer is a major public health concern in Kenya, and poor nutrition is a significant contributor to its upsurge. This paper examines the role of nutrition in the development and prevention of cancer in Kenya. Poor nutrition, including inadequate intake of fruits and vegetables and high consumption of processed foods, has been linked to an increased risk of various types of cancer. Diets high in red and processed meats, salt, and sugar have also been associated with increased cancer risk. On the other hand, diets high in fruits and vegetables, whole grains, and legumes have been shown to reduce the risk of various types of cancer. Kenya faces various challenges in promoting optimal nutrition, including poverty, food insecurity, and limited access to healthy foods. Many Kenyans consume diets that are low in fruits, vegetables, and whole grains and high in saturated fats, sugars, and salt. Malnutrition is also prevalent in Kenya, contributing to various health problems, including cancer. Promoting healthy nutrition practices through public health campaigns and policies that promote access to healthy foods and discourage consumption of unhealthy foods can mitigate the upsurge of cancer in Kenya. Nutrition education and awareness efforts are also critical in improving nutrition in Kenya. In conclusion, addressing the challenge of poor nutrition in Kenya is essential in mitigating the upsurge of cancer and improving overall health outcomes. Keywords: Cancer, nutrition, Kenya, diet, prevention, public health campaigns, access to healthy foods, nutrition education.

Micronutrient malnutrition (hidden hunger) is still a major problem in Kenya and other developing countries, particularly among school-age children who are rarely targeted by nutrition interventions. Studies indicate that food-based nutrition education (FBNE) interventions are effective in improving the adoption of recommended nutrition practices among school-age children. However, there is little evidence of the effectiveness of such interventions in developing countries such as Kenya. This study aimed to assess the effects of a FBNE intervention on nutrition Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices (KAP) and food use among grade six children in Ndhiwa Sub-County, Homa-Bay County, Kenya. A pre-post quasi-experimental design with intervention and control groups was used and was conducted from January to March 2021. The intervention was implemented using a FBNE curriculum developed using the health belief model constructs and was piloted with grade six Kenyan school children in 2 schools in Ndhiwa, Kenya. Participants in both the intervention and comparison groups were highly knowledgeable on handwashing prior to the intervention which was attributed to hygiene campaigns during COVID-19; and this remained similar postintervention p=0.22 and p=0.13, respectively. After the intervention, the intervention group had higher positive attitudes regarding handwashing (p=0.01) and practiced more handwashing (p=0.03) than the comparison group. Knowledge scores (p=0.0001), attitudes scores (p=0.0001), barriers scores (p=0.002) and practices scores (p=0.002) related to iron and zinc were significantly higher in the intervention than in the comparison group. Similarly, knowledge scores (p=0.004), attitudes scores (p=0.002) and practices scores (p=0.0001) related to Vitamin C and β carotene were also higher in the intervention group than in the comparison group. In addition, kitchen gardening knowledge (p=0.01) and attitudes (p=0.01) increased significantly in the intervention group relative to the comparison group. Food-based nutrition intervention is effective on nutrition KAP of the school children and more opportunities within and outside the formal curriculum should be explored to reach the children with more context-based information for positive behaviour change to end micronutrient deficiencies among adolescents. Longitudinal studies to investigate the long-term effects of this food-based intervention on nutrition KAP, and dietary behaviour change and associations with micronutrient status. Key words: Food-based Nutrition Education, Knowledge, Attitudes and Practices (KAP), School-age Children, Kenya.

This brief summarises key considerations concerning cross-border dynamics between Uganda and Kenya in the context of the outbreak of Ebola (Sudan Virus Disease, SVD) in Uganda. It is part of a series focusing on at-risk border areas between Uganda and four high priority neighbouring countries: Kenya; Rwanda; Tanzania, and South Sudan. The outbreak began in Mubende District, Uganda on 19 September 2022, approximately 340km from the Kenyan border. At the time of writing (December 2022), the outbreak had spread to eight Ugandan districts, including two in the Kampala metropolitan area. Kampala is a transport hub, with a population over 3.6 million. While the global risk from SVD remains low according to the World Health Organization (WHO), its presence in the Ugandan capital has significantly heightened the risk to regional neighbours. Kenya is categorised as a priority level 1 country, following a case in Jinja on the road between Kampala and the Kenyan border, on 13 November 2022. A total of 23 suspected cases were tested in Kenya up to 1 December 2022, all with negative results. To date, no case of SVD has been imported into the country from Uganda. This brief provides details about cross-border relations between the two states, the political and economic dynamics likely to influence these, and the specific areas and actors most at risk. The brief is based on a rapid review of existing published and grey literature, news reports, previous ethnographic research in Kenya and Uganda, and informal discussions with colleagues from the International Organisation for Migration, UNICEF, UNDP, Save the Children, the Kenyan Red Cross Society, the Kenyan Ministry of Health (MoH) and Ministry of Livestock, Agriculture and Fisheries in Kenya, and the Safe Water and AIDS project in Kisumu. It was requested by the Collective Service, written by Hugh Lamarque (University of Edinburgh) and Hannah Brown (Durham University) and supported by Olivia Tulloch (Anthrologica). It was further reviewed by colleagues from Anthrologica, the Institute of Development Studies, and the Collective Service. This brief is the responsibility of SSHAP.

Since 1987, the Family Planning Association of Kenya (FPAK) has operated two youth centers, one in Nairobi and the other in Mombasa. The centers target unmarried youth aged 10–24 and their primary objective is reduction in incidence of sexual and reproductive-health-related problems. These centers offer recreational and sports facilities, counseling services, including reproductive health (RH) information, limited RH services, and referrals. In 1996, FPAK undertook a systematic evaluation of its youth-center program including a situation analysis of the centers, a survey in their catchment areas, and an analysis of program costs. The main strength of the program was found to be its network of youth promoters and coordinators, who reached large numbers of youth through educational activities. A negative attitude toward adolescent sexual activity was found to be pervasive among youth center staff, however if retrained they could be an inexpensive and effective means of delivering nonprescriptive contraceptives. Investing in staff would reduce high rates of attrition among volunteers and cost of recruitment and training. As noted in this report, there is need for improvement in the youth centers, however FPAK has shown considerable commitment to meeting RH needs of adolescents in Kenya.

The International Health Regulations (2005) are legally binding on 196 States Parties, Including all WHO Member States. The IHR aims to keep the world informed about public health risks, through committing all signatories to cooperate together in combating any future “illness or medical condition, irrespective of origin or source, that presents or could present significant harm to humans.” Under IHR, countries agreed to strengthen their public health capacities and notify the WHO of any such illness in their populations. The WHO would be the centralized body for all countries facing a health threat, with the power to declare a “public health emergency of international concern,” issue recommendations, and work with countries to tackle a crisis. Although, with the sudden and rapid spread of COVID-19 in the world, many countries varied in implementing the WHO guidelines and health recommendations. While some countries followed the WHO guidelines, others imposed travel restrictions against the WHO’s recommendations. Some refused to share their data with the organization. Others banned the export of medical equipment, even in the face of global shortages.The UN Compliance Research group will focus during the current cycle on analyzing the compliance of the WHO member states to the organizations guidelines during the COVID-19 pandemic.

This position paper explores the importance of promoting investment in alternative agricultural products in Kenya to enhance food security and foster a resilient food system. The paper analyzes the current state of maize production and consumption in Kenya, compares it to neighboring countries, and delves into the challenges and inefficiencies of maize cultivation and transforming household diets. By examining comparable crops within Kenya and East Africa, it highlights potential solutions to the issues plaguing maize production and consumption. The dietary diversity of Kenyan households and its changes over time are investigated to identify underlying causes, and the unchanging demand for calorie-dense foods like maize is scrutinized. The paper proposes a paradigm shift towards a diversified food system and assesses past structural and behavioral interventions, identifying gaps that require attention.
