Message from Convenor of 2nd

International

Annual Interdisciplinary Conference

Prof. Maurice Nyamanga Amutabi, PhD

Welcome to Kisii University (KSU)

Greetings, greetings! Ladies and gentlemen,

allow me to take this opportunity to welcome

you to Eldoret Campus of Kisii University,

Kenya, to our Second Annual International

Interdisciplinary Conference, taking place at the

Eldoret Campus, of Kisii University (KSU) from

June 24-27, 2015 on behalf of the management

of this university, led by our Vice Chancellor

Prof. John S. Akama. We feel greatly honoured

and humbled to welcome over 500 of you, to

this significant conference, which some of you

are coming back for the second time. This is a

major milestone to our University because this is

the highest number that Kisii University will be

hosting for the second time. We need to

congratulate the University for this Great

Achievement in the history of our young

institution. I am excited that many of you have

decided to attend this highly acclaimed 2nd

Annual International Interdisciplinary

Conference despite the travel advisories and

terror threat in the country. It gives me

enormous gratification and honour to welcome

you all. We have put all necessary plans in place

to avert any security threat. We know this year’s

conference, like Juan Antonio Samarach often

said of the Olympics, “will be the greatest ever!”

Thanking University Management

We would like to thank Kisii University

Management for the support it has accorded this

conference. We thank the Vice Chancellor Prof.

John S. Akama, DVC Academic and Students

Affairs Prof. Maurice N. Amutabi, DVC APF

Prof. Joseph Mailutha, Registrar Academic and

Student Affairs Prof. Philip Owino, Registrar

Administration Mr. Chris Nyenze, Registrar

Research and Extension Prof. Alfred Anakalo

Shitandi, and Finance Officer. Mr Johnson

Mwaura. We thank all the Deans, Directors,

CODs and Coordinators for their support and

contribution towards the success of this 2nd

conference.

The Annual Conference

We intend to make this conference to be an

annual event. Some annual conferences die with

the inaugural one. I am excited to be the

convenor of this annual conference which I am

glad to see becoming an annual intellectual

activity for many of you from all over the world.

My friend and mentor Prof. Godfrey Muriuki,

who is also the Chancellor of Kisii University,

my mentor at the University of Illinois Prof.

Paul Tiyambe Zeleza, my friend and mentor

Prof. Toyin Falola of the University of Texas at

Austin in the US, and colleagues at Kisii

University will all be very pleased to see the

large turnout of this conference and the two

quality books that came out of the first

conference. Last. I would like to thank the

commitment that KSU attaches to research and

publishing through the cooperation that this

conference has received from top management

of Kisii University.

Kisii as one the “Big Ten” Universities in

Kenya

People are taking notice because Kisii

University has arrived and taken its place as one

of the big ten universities in Kenya in terms of

size, student population and programmes. The

University has earned this great reputation

through success in many of its programmes Kisii

University is the fastest growing university in

Kenya and much of the growth has come about

as a result of great commitment from students

and staff members. We are proud to have the

highest number of programmes at undergraduate

and postgraduate level in Kenya.

Collaborations

Kisii University holds much collaboration with

leading universities and organizations and is

determined to play its role in the community of

universities across the world. Our scholars have

been recognised by many universities. Many of

them are serving in various capacities as editors

of leading journals, external examiners, peer

reviewers and other roles that have the

university a great name.

Keynote speakers

This year, we have invited keynote speakers

from a wide array of fields. We feel very

privileged and honoured to have such high

profile scholars in our midst. Shadrack

Nasong’o, Prof. Ruth Otunga, Prof. Peter Tirop

Simatei and Prof. Prof. Kefa Otiso will all be

speaking at this conference. These are highly

regarded scholars, friends and our mentors. We

are delighted to hear from them. Many of the

keynote speakers are famous names whom many

of you have had the chance to imitate and

emulate, and it is great that we are sharing this

academic platform with them. We are impressed

with the great mix of scholars from a wide range

of disciplines, age, race, gender and

geographical spread.

Security in Kenya

We would like assure those ravelling from

overseas that Kenya is safe for travelling. The

organizing committee has put everything in pace

to ensure the safety of conference participants.

Participants are advised to book hotels in the

CBD and avoid areas such as Langas, Huruma

and Maili Nne.

Weather in Eldoret

The weather in Eldoret is cold and wet around

this time of the year. Conference participant and

other visitors are encouraged to carry warm

clothing. Many of the hotels are found close to

the conference venue and it’s safe to walk in

Eldoret town.

Currency exchange issues

Conference registration can be done on site.

Carry a few dollars for local travel and

expenditure on gifts and souvenirs. Many

payments in Kenya can be done using

MasterCard and visa cards. Hotels and other

services accept these cards although some will

accept only cash, which can be accessed at

various ATM machines of various international

banks such as Barclays Bank and Standard

Bank. Many hotels serve intentional cuisines.

Thanking members of Organizing Committee

I would like to applaud the organizing

committee, for their commitment in responding

to many e-mails and receiving telephone calls

from far and wide, sometimes at odd times and

putting up with all manner of inquiries. I am

glad to introduce the 2016 call for papers on

“Rethinking Development Paradigms in Africa”

found at the end of the programme. We are

expecting abstracts after this year’s conference.

Asante Sana (Thank you very much) and

Welcome (Karibu) to the Kisii University
