Introduction and Editor’s note

Abstract

Welcome to the Haki Journal of Human Rights (hakijhr).The journal is a collaborative effort between The Centre for Human Rights (CHRP) at the University of Nairobi and the Kenya National Commission on Human Rights (KNCHR). This journal seeks to engage issues in human rights including historical philosophical, controversial, racial, politico-ideological, economic, social, environmental and cultural. Current issues in Africa’s human rights landscape are of particular interest as scholarship and interest in the region expands. The journal will endeavour to deliver to the reader new theories, new discoveries and an Afrocentric perspective on human rights.
