Video: ‘Voices of Kenya’s Youth’
Kenya's youth face many challenges including poverty, hunger, lack of employment prospects and an overburdened--and underfunded--education system. Students at the University of Nairobi say their futures are determined by corrupt, cronyism politics rather than by professional merit. They say young people are becoming increasingly frustrated with the country's flailing education system and the political class controlling it.
In this report, Christina MacGillivray and Shravan Vidyarthi explore the challenges Kenyan young people face, corruption within the country's education system and young people's outlook for Kenya's future.
