  • African Regional Interest Group Virtual Meeting 2021
    African Regional Interest Group Virtual Meeting 2021 JUNE 28 - 30 AfRIG2021.org #AFRIG @IntPharmacoEpi Presented in conjunction with MURIA Welcome to AfRIG On behalf of the International Society for Pharmacoepidemiology (ISPE), the Africa Regional Interest Group (AfRIG) and the Medicines Utilizations Research in Africa (MURIA) Group, we welcome you to ISPE AfRIG and MURIA’s virtual conference on Pharmacoepidemiology and medicines utilization in Africa. The conference theme: “Building research Dr. Kwame Appenteng capacity in Pharmacoepidemiology for healthcare Chair, ISPE Africa systems in Africa: Data Networks and Analytics to Support Patient Care and Medical Products Policy” is timely given the increasing interest in Pharmacoepidemiology training and research in recent years and propelled by the COVID-19 pandemic. Several African countries are in the process of developing healthcare databases that could potentially be utilized for patient-centered research purposes. Globally, there is growing use of real-world data for health-related research, and for regulatory decision-making regarding the safety and effectiveness of marketed medicinal products and devices. This is therefore an exciting scientific meeting, which draws on the collective Prof. Brian Godman knowledge and experience of a multi-disciplinary MURIA panel of leading global experts, to share and gain insights into ongoing scientific research in Africa, explore pharmacoepidemiology opportunities for the African continent, and to find avenues for collaborative scientific research work for the benefit of patients in Africa. We hope you enjoy every session of the conference.

  • Research Article the Challenges of Student Affairs at Kenyan Public Universities
    Journal of Student Affairs in Africa | Volume 1 (1&2) 2013, 33–48 | ISSN 2307-6267 | DOI: 10.14426/jsaa.v1i1-2.34 research article The challenges of student affairs at Kenyan public universities Tamara Yakaboski* and Matthew Birnbaum** Abstract Kenya is increasingly turning to the promise of mass higher education to help solve a range of economic and social issues. These efforts have had profound effects on university students, faculty and professionals who provide the vital student support services necessary for academic success. This case study explores the challenges that face Kenyan student services professionals within the context of the country’s history and cultures. Kenya’s student service professionals face four major challenges: the increasing costs of attendance, the resulting impact on student behaviours and actions, lack of training and senior leadership, and regular campus closures. Keywords student affairs, accommodation, student housing, student services, university environment, higher education. The challenges of student affairs at Kenyan public universities Kenya is increasingly turning to the promise of mass higher education, meaning a shift from an elite to an open system of access, to help solve a range of economic and social problems (Jowi, 2009; Kenya Vision 2030, 2007). The national government has made its commitment to post-secondary education evident through the addition of over 25 public universities and constituent colleges since 1994 and its adoption of policies encouraging rapid enrolment growth in nearly all post-secondary institutions. Between 2010 and 2013, Kenya made nearly 20 constituent colleges and branch campuses into stand-alone universities. Even with this growing capacity, Kenya’s demand for access to affordable higher education far exceeds the system’s ability to deliver quality instruction and student support (Ngolovoi, 2010; Owuor, 2012).
