  • Kenya General Elections, 2017
    FINAL REPORT REPUBLIC OF KENYA General Elections 2017 REPUBLIC OF KENYA European Union Election Observation Mission FINAL REPORT General Elections 2017 January 2018 This report contains the findings of the EU Election Observation Mission (EOM) on the general elections 2017 in Kenya. The EU EOM is independent from the European Union’s institutions, and therefore this report is not an official position of the European Union. KEY CONCLUSIONS OF THE EU EOM KENYA 2017 1. The Kenyan people, including five million young people able to vote for the first time, showed eagerness to participate in shaping the future of their country. However, the electoral process was damaged by political leaders attacking independent institutions and by a lack of dialogue between the two sides, with escalating disputes and violence. Eventually the opposition withdrew its presidential candidate and refused to accept the legitimacy of the electoral process. Structural problems and specific electoral issues both need to be addressed meaningfully to prevent problems arising during future elections. 2. Electoral reform needs to be carried out well in advance of any election, and to be based on broad consensus. The very late legal amendments and appointment of the leadership of the Independent Electoral and Boundaries Commission (IEBC) before the 2017 elections put excessive pressure on the new election administration. 3. Despite efforts to improve the situation, there was a persistent lack of trust in the IEBC by the opposition and other stakeholders, demonstrating the need for greater independence and accountability as well as for sustained communication and more meaningful stakeholder consultation. There was improved use of technology, but insufficient capacity or security testing.

  • Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting in Kenya- Examining Progress Or Lack of Progress at National and Subnational Levels
    Female Genital Mutilation/Cutting in Kenya- Examining Progress or Lack of Progress at National and Subnational Levels Robert P Ndugwa PhD1 and Dr Edward Addai2 1Global Urban Observatory, Research and Capacity Development Branch, United Nations Human Settlements Programme, Nairobi, Kenya. 2UNICEF ESARO, Nairobi, Kenya Abstract Female genital mutilation or cutting (FGM/C) is widely outlawed globally, but continues to be practiced in selected communities across the globe. In Kenya, this practice is common among selected communities, and recent national trends show that the prevalence of the practice is declining. Using Multiple Indicator Cluster Surveys data collected in 2011 from 6 counties from the Western region of Kenya, we demonstrate that while national figures conspire to show that the prevalence of FGM has declined but among certain communities the practice remains almost universal. Underlying factors favouring the continuation of the practice within these communities are discussed, including examining the role of cultural traditions, tribe and religion. The study demonstrates the value of collecting data at lower levels, and highlights the need to step up the responses and engagement of communities who continue practicing FGM even after outlawing this practice. Introduction Female genital mutilation or cutting (FGM/C) has continued to dominate the discourse in women’s health and empowerment as well as remaining a dominate subject for human rights violations today. Female genital mutilation or cutting (FGM/C) is a procedure or practice where the parts of the female genitals are removed, and it is practiced in over twenty countries within sub-Saharan Africa. FGM/C practice has been widely documented to interfere with the natural functioning of the body, in addition to causing many short-term and long-term health and psychological consequences (Behrendt et al.
