  • Influencer Culture and Food Habits in Urban Nairobi,Kakamega and The
    Guns, Oil and Water in Turkana County: What Do the Stars Portend? By Darius Okolla Six hundred and seventy-one kilometres north of Nairobi, close to the border with Uganda, Sudan and Ethiopia, lies the dusty town of Lodwar in Turkana County, a rustic regional headquarters surrounded by a vast, sparse, thorny landscape that hosts the largest desert water body in the world, Lake Turkana. The recent discovery of oil in the region has thrown the county into the national limelight, giving it newfound importance because of its resource matrix. But even as the oil extraction begins, a process that has been marred by opacity, accusations of corruption, and conflict over the division of profits between the locals and the national government, an older discovery remains relatively unknown—archeoastronomy. Archeoastronomy is the study of how people in the past understood the phenomena in the sky, how they used these discoveries, and what role the sky played in their cultures. It is a multi-disciplinary field that includes geomorphology, art, astronomy, and religion. The basalt pillars discovered at Kalokol, Lothagam, Manemanya, Lokori and Namoratunga in the Turkana region in 1970s, are said to align with seven major stars: Aldebaran, Sirius, beta Triangulum, Pleiades, Bellatrix, central Orion and Saiph. The name Namoratunga is interpreted to mean either “dancing stones” or “people of stones”. There is contestation as regards the dating of the rock formations, with some claiming they were installed around 300 BC while others say they date as far back as 2400 BC. Some of the pillar sites have sophisticated underground burial sites containing as many as 160 graves all facing in one direction and marked by horizontal and vertical stone slabs jutting out of the ground.

  • The Challenges of Reinvigorating Democracy Through Visual Art in 21St Century Nairobi
    The challenges of reinvigorating democracy through visual art in 21st century Nairobi Craig Campbell Halliday 30 September 2019 Dissertation Submitted in Partial Fulfilment for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy Sainsbury Research Unit for the Arts of Africa, Oceania & the Americas School of Art, Media and American Studies University of East Anglia, Norwich This copy of the thesis has been supplied on condition that anyone who consults it is understood to recognise that its copyright rests with the author and that use of any information derived therefrom must be in accordance with current UK Copyright Law. In addition, any quotation or extract must include full attribution. 1 Abstract This study examines the potential for contemporary visual art to reinvigorate democracy in 21st century Nairobi, Kenya, through an interdisciplinary investigation. The new millennium ushered in fresh hope for democratisation in the postcolonial East African country. In 2002, Daniel arap Moi’s 24 years of authoritarian rule ended. The opposition were victorious at the ballot box, instilling a belief amongst the electorate that formal political processes could bring change. However, the post-election violence of 2007/8 shattered such convictions. But, from this election result came a progressive Constitution and with it possibilities for creating change. These momentous events underscore Kenya’s topsy-turvy path towards democracy – a path whose trajectory is charted in the experience of ordinary Kenyans who believe in democracy’s value and their right to participate in politics and civil life. Artists, too, have been at the forefront of this ongoing struggle. This study draws on empirical research to demonstrate contemporary visual art’s capacity to expand ways of practising, experiencing and understanding democracy.

  • Creative and Cultural Disciplines in Higher Education and Industry in Kenya
    3 Creative and Cultural Disciplines in Higher Education and Industry in Kenya This chapter is an analysis of the creative and cultural industries activities or courses in the target universities, the creative and cultural disciplines at two levels in the institutions of higher learning: as a subject and as an activity which gives rise to, for example, music students and student musicians, as much as art students and student artists. Where the two thrive side by side, it is thanks to an enabling environment created through policy and practice, the former covering curricular provisions, and the latter recognising the role of the (mostly) performing arts in the life of the institution. The chapter then explores case studies of the selected institutions of higher learning in order to establish a clearer understanding of the practice(s) therein. The Creative and Cultural Disciplines The rapid growth of university education has opened access to higher education for Kenyan youths. With the start of self-sponsored programmes, the delinking of university admission from bed-space and the high output of high school graduates ready to take up space in higher education, there has been scope for expansion of the disciplines on offer. Whereas the arts were first introduced in higher education as components of teacher education curriculum, they have today grown to take their space as stand-alone areas of qualification. The public universities have sustained music and theatre as elements of student cultural activities, so that even universities that do not teach either of the subjects present students at both national music and drama festivals.

FOREWORD The transformation of the Judiciary and reforms in the justice sector continue to register major successes. All the institutions in the justice chain are responding to the new imperatives demanded by the Constitution, 2010, and whereas challenges still abound, steady progress is being made. This report on the State of the Judiciary and the Administration of Justice, 2013/2014 discusses the progress made this far and issues that require further intervention. For the Judiciary in particular, the FY2013/14 was a successful but challenging one. In the first part of the year, the Judicial Service Commission (JSC) investigation unearthed far-reaching governance, management and integrity problems that led to the dismissal of the Chief Registrar of the Judiciary. This action by JSC provoked resistance from the National Assembly and the Executive resulting into an attempt, though ultimately unsuccessful, by the two Organs of State to disband JSC. The elaborate disciplinary processes JSC instituted, and the resultant friction in inter-agency relationship, took valuable Judiciary time in the first part of the year.

  • Theatre for Development in Kenya: in Search for Effective Procedure And
    Theatre for Development in Kenya: In Search of an Effective Procedure and Methodology CHRISTOPHER ODHIAMBO JOSEPH Dissertation presented for the Degree of Doctor of Philosophy at the University of Stellenbosch. Promoter: Prof. Temple Hauptfleisch Date: September 2004 Declaration I, the undersigned, hereby declare that the work contained in this dissertation is my own work and that I have not previously in its entirety or in part submitted it at any university for a degree. * Signature: Date: ii ABSTRACT This is a study of Theatre for Development (TfD) in Kenya. It is an attempt to map out and describe different manifestations of the practice which would, in a way, act as a critical model for practitioners and other stakeholders. However, this is in no way an attempt to provide a rigid all-purpose theoretical model, but nonetheless to offer ways, through a description of aspects of Theatre for Development, within which and through which social and behavioural transformations in this eclectic field may take place. To this end, case studies of a few indicative and contrasting examples of Theatre for Development will be used to provide a mirror which will enable its practitioners to reflect upon and critique their own practices as a way of achieving optimum effectiveness. The works of Paulo Freire and Augusto Boal provide the study with a theoretical model in which its basic assumptions and arguments are tested and developed. These two authors, whose works are related in many ways, privilege the use of participatory approaches in the process of creating critical consciousness and promoting change in the individual and in society; these are fundamental requirements in any meaningful practice of Theatre for Development.
