Listen "Understanding Kenya’s Labor Unrest: Beyond Government Missteps"
Episode Synopsis
In this episode of Jijuze, host Brian examines the recurring labor unrest in Kenya. He explores the structural and political factors at play, pinpointing the country's 2010 Constitution as a significant root cause. The constitution enabled strong labor rights and devolved essential government functions, leading to an empowered workforce but a fragmented system of accountability, sparking recurrent labor unrest. The podcast dives into the health sector's challenges where decentralization has complicated negotiations. In contrast, the education sector's centralized system has also led to its unique conflict points. The episode presents a comprehensive picture of labor strifes in Kenya's governance model, shaped by the 2010 constitutional changes.
