The East African Community (EAC) stands on the brink of a historic transformation as Ethiopia, Africa's second-most populous country and one of its fastest-growing economies, prepares to join its ranks. With negotiations underway and momentum building, Ethiopia's prospective membership promises to redefine the regional dynamics, unlocking immense economic potential and paving the way for a new era of collaboration and prosperity across East Africa. As negotiations progress and preparations for Ethiopia's accession advance, the East Africa Court of Justice (EACJ) will continue to play a crucial role in ensuring the effective implementation of regional laws in a manner that facilitates cross-border trade, investment, collaboration, and promotion of the rule of law and the resolution of legal disputes within the expanded EAC framework. #EACIntegrationEthiopia #EACJ #EALS #EAC #EastAfricaBusinessCouncil #KenyaAssociationOfManufacturers #KenyaAssociationOfInsurers #KenyaBankersAssociation

In the public policy field, Kingdon's Multiple Streams Framework (MSF) is a renowned analytical theory to study the emergence of public policies. I analysed this framework by studying the emergence of The Zainab Alert, Response, and Recovery Act 2019. My review found that with the convergence of political, problem, and policy streams in Pakistan following the catastrophic event of Zainab Ansari's rape case, a policy window opened whereby policy entrepreneurs like government officials and celebrities pushed the adaption of the ZARRA Act. Consequently, this framework proved to be an effective tool to evaluate the introduction of innovative public policies, not only in the context of high-income countries but also in low-middle-income countries (LMICs) like Pakistan. It would be great to have your insights about MSF's wider applicability. Has anyone else also applied this framework to similar policies in the LMICs context? #PublicPolicy #MultipleStreamsFramework #ZARRA DOI: https://lnkd.in/e7ZkmFeU

Instruments of Territorial Impact | 32 Days of Governance - Day 4 | Hosted by Boqer School of Government Aug. 8 | 9:00 PM (WAT) Meeting Link: https://lnkd.in/dRruQbJz It is agreed that Africa is not in want of men and women who have good intentions towards the continent. But these men, despite their good intentions, continue to suffer defeat in the hands of those who insist on holding the continent hostage. Experience and documented history has shown that it is not enough to have good intentions. There are seven principal realms of empowerment those who wish to stop the mouths of lions, quench the violence of fire and put to flight the armies of the alien must have. We discussed the first four during Day 3 Of Boqer School's 32 Days of Governance Masterclass series. Join us this evening as we labour to equip the leaders that will transform their society with instruments of territorial impact. Meeting details 👆🏽👆🏽 Africa's morning is at hand.

Local governments play a vital role in deepening democracy and encouraging mass participation in decision-making. They serve as the bridge between representation and administration, ensuring that governance happens at the grassroots level. However, as Mayor Yvonne Aki-Sawyerr OBE pointed out, the local government is often overlooked, despite their crucial role in connecting directly with the people. At the Africa Conference 2024, we will explore the theme: Good Governance in Africa: Leaders and Citizens Driving Systemic Change.
