The Betonda family; my brothers and sisters thank you for your support and you all know that we can still keep the dream of our father alive through education. Finally, to my beloved wife Shallon, you held onto hope and kept the faith as I crisscrossed the borders of Kenya and Uganda. Your patience and fortitude is commendable.

Cheers. v DEDICATION To the memory of my late father, Festo Betonda (Rest in Peace), for the love of educating his children amidst hardships and to my mother, Audry Betonda for her patience and perseverance in raising us. To my dear wife, the love of my life Shallon for having weathered many storms of our life together. For your support, companionship and love that made the daunting task of doing a PhD possible.

    Higher Education Solutions Network (HESN) 2.0 Programs Bi-Annual Performance Report Narrative

    Higher Education Solutions Network (HESN) 2.0 Programs Bi-Annual Performance Report Narrative 1. BACKGROUND LASER PULSE is a five-year USAID-funded consortium, led by Purdue University and also comprising Catholic Relief Services, Indiana University, Makerere University, and the University of Notre Dame. LASER PULSE supports the research-to-translation value chain through a global network of 1,000+ researchers, government agencies, non-governmental organizations, and the private sector for research-driven, practical solutions to critical development challenges in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). LASER supports the discovery and uptake of research-sourced, evidence-based solutions to development challenges spanning all USAID technical sectors and global geographic regions. The LASER PULSE strategy ensures that applied research is co-designed with development practitioners, and results in solutions that are useful and usable. LASER does this by involving development practitioners upfront - from topic selection, research question definition, conducting and testing research, and developing translation products for immediate use. We support this process with capacity building and technical assistance to enable the researcher/user partnerships to function effectively. 2. MAJOR MILESTONES / ACHIEVEMENTS 1. Researcher Capacity:​ Makerere University had an opportunity to engage with ​USAID Uganda’s Regional Development Initiative​.​ ​The team accompanied the Uganda Regional Development Initiative team on several visits, to provide feedback on working with local universities in order to enhance their role in the path to self-reliance. This is a model that can be replicated in other countries and regions. The collaboration (Makerere and RDI) has resulted in a new buy-in opportunity for Makerere to work with regional universities in strengthening resilience for indigenous Ugandan groups).

    Of Independent Public Universities in Mombasa, Kenya Kevin Brennan

    A History of the Absence (and Emergent Presence) of Independent Public Universities in Mombasa, Kenya Kevin Brennan A dissertation submitted to the faculty of the University of North Carolina at Chapel Hill in partial fulfillment of the requirements for the degree of Doctor of Philosophy in the School of Education. Chapel Hill 2008 Approved by: George Noblit Julius Nyang‟oro James Trier Richard Rodman Gerald Unks © 2008 Kevin Brennan ALL RIGHTS RESERVED ii Abstract Kevin Brennan A History of the Absence (and Emergent Presence) of Independent Public Universities in Mombasa, Kenya (Under the direction of George Noblit and Julius Nyang‟oro) While there is a great deal of literature available about schooling in Kenya and a good deal of writing about the establishment of Kenya‟s public university system there is a significant gap in the literature when it comes to describing and analyzing why certain areas of the country had long been removed from any on-site development of independent university opportunities. This study is an attempt to offer a history of an educational institution – an independent public university at the coast in Kenya – that does not yet exist. This longstanding absence took several significant steps toward transforming to a presence in 2007, when several university colleges were created at the coast. This transformation from absence to presence is a central theme in this work. The research for this project, broadly defined, took place over a seventeen year period and is rooted in both the author‟s professional experience as an educator working in Kenya in the early 1990s as well as his academic interests in comparative and international higher education.
