The Influential: Promoting Kenya’s Strategic Interests on the Domestic and International Stances

Abstract

This publication contains papers anchored on safeguarding Kenya’s strategic interests in the context of changing regional and global dynamics. The five research papers engage in academic and policy conversations themed around countering financial crimes; pre-empting the transnational mobility of the Al-Shabaab; strengthening anticorruption efforts; rejuvenation of Kenya’s economy in the context of the Covid 19 pandemic; and advancing Kenya’s strategic interests in ongoing Kenya-United States Free Trade Area Agreement (KUSFTA) negotiations. Each paper offers practical policy recommendations.
