Hoffman & Hoffman Worldwide HOFFMAN & HOFFMAN WORLDWIDE GLOBAL MEDIA AND PUBLIC RELATIONS WASHINGTON DC LONDON TORONTO BUENOS AIRES NAIROBI ‘Food Security & Climate Change’ Release Media Hits: Nairobi, 23 June 2012 National Newspapers Daily Nation (Kenya) Undernourished Women and Children under 5 could increase by 20 percent Almost half a billion women and children under five in the developing world are undernourished due to poor nutrition. A new report however shows this number could increase by 20 per cent, reaching one in five within a decade, compared to one in seven today, due to the impacts of climate change on global food production. This is according to a detailed analysis by the Partnership for Maternal, Newborn & Child Health (PMNCH), the World Health Organization (WHO), the UN System Standing Committee on Nutrition (UNSCN), 1,000 Days, World Vision International and partners. “Food security is under threat by climate change. The linkages between its impacts on global food production, price volatility, population growth and nutrition need to be addressed in order to tackle undernourishment of these more vulnerable groups.” Chronic hunger will increase Today, 495 million women and children under five in the developing world are undernourished. That is 150 million or one in four in Africa; 315 million or one in seven in Asia; and 30 million or one in 11 in Latin America and the Caribbean. About 465 million additional women and children under five will be living in developing countries by 2020, bringing the total population of this group to 3.6 billion, vastly increasing food demand. Thus, in 10 years, the compounded impact of climate change and population growth could increase the number of undernourished women and children by 20 per cent.

  • The Politics of Impunity and the Shifting Media Landscape in Kenya
    Athens Journal of Mass Media and Communications- Volume 7, Issue 1, January 2021 – Pages 61-78 The Politics of Impunity and the Shifting Media Landscape in Kenya By Philip Onguny This article focuses on state-media relations and the shifts in the overall media landscape in Kenya. Drawing on a political economy approach to media operations in Kenya, it argues that while there are competing meanings over what constitutes "news values", "editorial independence", and "critical media", changes in political regimes and unclear media regulations contribute to political and/or corporate interference on media coverage of corruption and political impunity. This renders media operations problematic at the normative and operational levels. The discussion situates these arguments within the contexts of "policy laundering" and "critical junctures", seeking to establish whether the shifting media landscape is a function of increased information and communication affordability or, instead, an indication that critical media are on the decline. Overall, the article provides an assessment of key temporal periods that have shaped media regulatory frameworks to show how political and/or corporate interests have influenced journalistic practices and editorial independence over time and space. Keywords: Kenyan media, media regulations, editorial independence, political impunity, policy laundering, safety of journalists, critical junctures Introduction Kenya has been perceived as one of the few African countries with a "pluralist" media, somewhat related to conditions under which media outlets operate. For instance, a recent report by Reporters Without Borders (2018) ranks Kenya 96th (out of 180 countries) on World Press Freedom Index, a 4-point improvement from 20151. However, according to the 2019 Corruption Perception Index by Transparency International, Kenya scores 28 out of 100 which highlights the slow progress in fighting corruption2.

  • A Study of Foreign Influence on Newspapers in Kenya
    A^7 A STUDY OF FOREIGN INFLUENCE ON NEWSPAPERS IN KENYA FROM 1900 TO 1980 THESIS Presented to the Graduate Council of the North Texas State University in Partial Fulfillment Of the Requirements For the Degree of MASTER OF ARTS By Elizabeth Wako Okeniyi, B.A. Der ton, Texas August, 1981 Okeniyi, Elizabeth W., A Study of Foreign Influence on Newspapers in.Kenya from 1900 to 1980. Master of Arts, August, 1981, 56 pp., bibliography, 46 titles. This study gives an historical account of foreign ownership of newspapers in Kenya. Since the establishment of the first newspaper in the early 1900s, to the modern publication of daily newspapers in Kenya, the press has been dominated by foreign owners, writers and advertisers. Before independence from Britain, foreign domination was expressed by the total disregard of the African by the newspapers. After independence, foreign domination continued as the government, dedicated to the free enterprise capita- list system, has not made any substantial effort to nationalize already established newspaper companies. In 1977 the first African-owned newspaper, a weekly was established. Today, there is no African-owned daily newspaper. All indications are that only the modernizing process will result in African ownership and control of newspapers. TABLE OF CONTENTS Chapter Page I. INTRODUCTION ...... .. .........

J Armed cadets motion passengers from the plane to a beige-green bus marked National Youth Service. We sit cramped together, luggage on laps. To our right, a steel wall barricades the main airport building gutted by fire. Our driver, in a beret and green army fatigues, weaves through the pitch black before pulling up at a multi-story car park that’s serving as the makeshift arrivals hall. Soldiers usher us to immigration gates where ticket machines stood a few months ago. I head to “Foreign Visitors” until I feel a tug at my arm. “This officer is a friend of mine.” My impromptu guide jumps me through the “Kenyan Citizens” line and fires a meaningful nod at the olive-uniformed guard. He asks me the purpose of my visit but before I can say “business” my passport is stamped and I’m through. My new-found friend sat next to me on the plane. He was a candidate in the 2013 election for a ward in Nakuru, Kenya’s third largest city after Nairobi and Mombasa. He lost the election but became the assistant to the winning MP, a mate of his. As we wait half an hour in the four parking rows that make up baggage reclaim, he shows me one of his three mobile phones.

Ndonye2 1Media Scholar, Egerton University, Kenya 2Lecturer, Kabarak University, Kenya Corresponding author email [email protected] Abstract The main aim of this paper is to investigate media ownership patterns and analyse the implications of such patterns in Kenya—while thinking globally. Notably, media industry has attracted politicians and business tycoons around the world. It is one of the most lucrative industries that come with a lot of power and influence. From the literature reviewed in this analysis, it is evident that very few studies have been done to critically look at the media ownership patterns in Kenya and the implications such ownership have in the media market place. The paper is aimed at answering three questions. 1) What has been the media ownership pattern in Kenya since independence? 2) What does media ownership patterns mean to the Kenyan Media industry? 3) How does this pattern in Kenya compare to the rest of the world? Analysis from this research seems to demonstrate that most media outlets in Kenya are either politically owned or have some political agenda attached to them. As a result of such pattern, the Kenyan media experience narrow content and lack of alternative viewpoint of news and information disseminated to the public.

  • Universal Health Coverage Day 2018 UNITE for UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE: NOW IS the TIME for COLLECTIVE ACTION
    INTERNATIONAL Universal Health Coverage Day 2018 UNITE FOR UNIVERSAL HEALTH COVERAGE: NOW IS THE TIME FOR COLLECTIVE ACTION MEDIA COVERAGE REPORT As of 18 December 2018 TABLE OF CONTENTS Overview Global Partner Events Digital/Social Media Traditional Media New Reports Global Media Coverage OVERVIEW Led by UHC2030 and the multi-stakeholder UHC Day Coordinating Group, the fifth UHC Day exceeded the breadth and depth of engagement seen in years past. As the first UHC Day officially recognized by the United Nations as an international awareness day, the focus of this year’s 12.12 extended far beyond civil society engagement. This year’s momentum exceeded past measures of success, with more partner events, more country-level engagement and more creative content on social media. The coverage of UHC Day 2018 highlights its importance to diverse issue areas within global health and across countries and sectors. Action and conversation from this day is already propelling conversations about universal health coverage into related issue areas and generating momentum in the lead up to major milestones, including the UN General Assembly High-Level Meeting on UHC in September 2019. GLOBAL PARTNER EVENTS Thanks in no small part to generous contributions from UHC2030 in the form of $90,000 in micro-grants for partner events, organizations across the globe were able to engage with UHC Day unprecedented ways. The resulting global partner events became an undeniable highlight of the day, as the UHC Day Coordinating Group (12.12.CG) received ​435 grant applications​ by the end of October 2018. Of these, 12.12.CG selected ​57 grantees​ ​from 34 countries​, as well as 2 global youth network events, 1 regional youth network event and 3 online events, for the 2018 grants.
