Transparency and Accountability in Kenya: State of Play

Our last chapter introduced our readers to the laws in Kenya that govern transparency and accountability. It is however important to note that these laws, albeit vast and largely good, are of no use without proper channels of enforcement, implementation and participation. This chapter provides an overview of Kenya’s standing with Transparency and Accountability within the extractives sector. It looks at the challenges that the country faces towards achieving transparency and accountability and provides recommendations for better openness and accountability within the extractives sector.
