Please join us for two events featuring Sylvia Wairium Kang’ara on Tuesday, May 20th and Wednesday, May 21st. Professor Kang’ara serves as a member of President William Ruto’s Council of Economic Advisors in Kenya. Before her appointment in 2022, she was the founding dean of Riara University Law School in Nairobi, Kenya (2012-2018) and professor of law at the University of Washington School of Law (2006 and 2011).
Her public talk: “Statecraft, Policy-Making, and Managing Political Conflicts:
Reflections on Kenya 2020–2025”, takes place May 20th at 4:30pm in Parrington Hall 360, and is co-sponsored by the Political Economy Forum.
On May 21, from 11:30-12:30, students are welcome to join Prof Kang’ara for a conversation about anti-corruption strategies in Kenya in Parrington 320 as part of the graduate class Developing Politics and Policy.
