Kenya: A Natural Outlook
Kenya is a thriving country in East Africa: its economy is largely based on the natural environment that frames the tourism sector, mainly through safaris and holidays on the coast. The natural environment also underpins the second largest industry: agriculture. Kenya’s social, technological, and industrial developments are a reference for many neighboring countries. Kenya plays a leading role in Africa and attracts huge amounts of investments. Furthermore, the humanitarian community has made Nairobi its base for international headquarters and regional offices. This makes Kenya a possible model for development and investment in its widest sense. This book aims at updating the holistic view...
Kenya: A Natural Outlook
In Kenya, environmental impact assessment (EIA) has been used to ensure that environmental management is integrated into project planning and decision-making with a view of achieving ecologically sustainable development. Best-practice EIA identifies environmental risks, lessens resource use conflicts by promoting community participation, minimizes adverse environmental effects, informs decision-makers, and helps lay the base for environmentally sound projects. In the integration of an EIA, due considerations are made in all stages of a project, from exploration and planning through construction, operations, decommissioning, and beyond site closure. Therefore, this chapter brings out an in-depth understanding of the EIA in the Kenyan context. Some of the key issues looked into are the goals and principles of the EIA, the EIA process, public consultation and participation in environmental assessment, social dimensions in environmental assessment, and the legislative and regulatory framework for environmental management in Kenya.

Abducted
At seventeen, Jacqueline Pascarl married a royal prince and embarked on what she believed would be a fairy-tale existence. But it soon became a nightmare. After years of abuse at the hands of her husband, Jacqueline escaped with her children, hoping to leave her past behind. But what followed would haunt her for the next fourteen years. In this heart-rending story, Jacqueline describes how her husband kidnapped their two young children and forced them to cut off all contact with her. She tells of the pain and helplessness she felt at their loss but also of how she channelled her grief, forging an existence as an aid worker and humanitarian ambassador, all the while desperately hoping to hear news of them. In 2006, she was reunited with her long-lost children, and in Abducted she reveals the dramatic events that led to their meeting. This is a candid, compelling account of living under the shadow of child abduction. It is an unforgettable ride through tragedy, loss and, finally, triumph.
I Have Finally Seen the Light Stripped Naked
I am writing this book to set myself free. Hopefully, it will inspire others not to live in misery. I am telling my story all truth and lies, so that way I can live, forgive, and rise. It is through my eyes only, as I choose to share. I cannot speak for others, although I might dare. I am doing this for me, and everyone can see, not trying to drag others through my pain and agony. I have finally seen the light, and you can too. It shines bright in all of you. I am down on the ground wondering where to go; I will follow the light, but take it slow. I want to feel and live, rather than exist and die. I would rather love than hate, as it is a mind state. I would rather have nothing and feel everything, than have everything and feel nothing. I want to be free from these lies, some which I created. So, I can fly like an eagle and explore what I defeated. Life is too short to live in regret, but sharing with others feels like a threat. I am not perfect by any means, but I am perfectly imperfect and ready to be seen. I do not want to be royal or even Queen, I just want to be myself and I am Jacqueline Jean.
