Home Kenya and Culture Cities and Sites Photos ... About This Site Jambo! - Hello! ~Culture~ English speakers should have no problem being understood in Kenya, the country has 2 official languages Swahili and English. ~However, taking Swahili lessons would not hurt. It comes in handy when making friends with the locals. Another way you can benefit from knowing Swahili is that if you speak in it to vendors at the market, they will not hassle you too badly. Besides knowing Swahili for the market place, you should also know how to barter. ~Vendors will purposely ask for a very high price (according to their standards, but which is probably still considered a bargain in to Westerners) for their goods. They will expect you to cut their price by at least half. Then barter back and forth from there! Another cultural point that anyone travelling to Kenya should know do not wear short trousers or skirts! Women who wear shorter skirts (above the knee) in Kenya are considered prostitutes. It is easy to find comfortable slacks that are light enough for hot weather. ~FYI - Kenyans speak British English. So our "pants" is their "underwear."

http://www.inasp.info/pubs/bookchain/profiles/Kenya.html
The Book Chain in Kenya By Cephas Odini Kenya consists of eight physiographic regions divided into administrative provinces. Within these administrative units are districts followed by divisions, locations, sub-locations and villages. The climate differs throughout the country and is determined by topography, altitude and precipitation. Most of the northern and eastern part of the country is semi-arid, and less than one third of the country is arable. In Kenya, agriculture remains the leading sector in stimulating economic growth. The most important foreign-exchange earners are coffee and tea in the agricultural sector and tourism in the non-agricultural sector. Although the government has played an important role in the economy, private enterprise has been given more weight in the development process and today accounts for about two thirds of gross domestic product. In Kenya, several social factors are relevant to the provision and use of books:
  • a low level of literacy, meaning that a sizeable proportion of Kenyans are excluded from readership;
  • the dominance of books written in English, which means that people with basic literacy skills in Kenyan vernacular languages are excluded from using the books stocked by libraries as so few of them are available in the vernaculars.

Tobacco is a big source of revenue to most African governments
By Gray Phombeah in Nairobi Anti-smoking campaigners in Kenya are determined to turn their heat on the tobacco companies which are flocking Africa to boost their earnings. Negotiators from over 150 countries are currently meeting in Geneva to discuss the world's first anti-tobacco pact, and the United States and Europe have already declared war on tobacco companies. But tobacco firms are big investors in Africa, bringing in huge tax revenues for cash-strapped governments. Cigarette manufacturing plants employ thousands of people, while millions more work on tobacco farms.
Kenya has nearly five million smokers
The US and Europe are tightening their controls on the big tobacco companies through stringent laws and lawsuits. But the companies are finding fertile markets in Africa. In Kenya alone, a quarter of the population - nearly five million people - are smokers. Lifestyle diseases The battle between health care activists and cigarette manufacturers came to the fore last week with anti-smoking campaigners accusing cigarette makers of undermining their efforts through advertising.

Backpacker Tours Kenya: Patchwork of Experiences Kenya, Africa By Bob Riel Any trip to Kenya is going to result in an intense patchwork of experiences - from the dreadfully frustrating to the sublimely beautiful. This, at least, is the conclusion I reached after a visit to Kenya with my wife, Lisa, for a wildlife safari . We encountered a crumbling infrastructure, inefficient airlines and a constant pleading for money, but also incredibly friendly people, astounding landscapes, and rich cultural encounters. In the end, we wouldn't have traded any part of the experience. We returned home with a collage of lasting memories. The safari began early on a Sunday morning when our guide, Ben, picked us up in Nairobi. We had a six-hour drive ahead of us on this day and we would be in the vehicle every day for the next week, crossing the equator twice and bouncing along more than one thousand miles of Kenyan roads. "So, we will be together for six days," I said to Ben. "That means we will become friends."

Swahili Studies and Coastal Cultures
Studying in Kenya
"Karibu!" This means "welcome" and is a frequently heard word in Kenya. Kenyans welcome visitors into their homes and their lives with an enthusiasm and joy rarely found in the United States. In this program students are welcomed into Kenyan homes in the coastal port city of Mombasa, as well as the Taita village of Mgange Dawida. SIT also has a very close rapport with the Lamu community. While there, students learn about Swahili life, language, and culture through Swahili tutors who welcome them into their homes. Students may have the opportunity to go fishing on a traditional dhow, attend a Kenyan wedding ceremony, be painted with henna in the local fashion, or learn how to cook delicious Swahili dishes with their tutors. Some students have enjoyed their homestays so much that they have remained with their families during the Independent Study Project (ISP) period. Others have chosen to extend their stay in Kenya after the program and live, once again, with their newfound family. Highlights of the program include the dhow trip, a three-day sailing excursion aboard a traditional African dhow through the islands of the Lamu archipelago, visiting villages of historical significance, deep sea fishing or snorkeling off the island of Kiwayuu, with its coral caves and white sand deserted beach, and an excursion to the island of Zanzibar or the Sultanate of Oman. In Zanzibar, once the seat of political and economic power on the east coast of Africa, students visit the ruins of the Sultan's palaces and Persian baths, museums that outline the history of the island. Students also enjoy a spice tour that illustrates the island's most important industry and a walk through Jozani Forest to learn about different herbs and their healing power. While there, we also take time to observe the red colobus monkeys at play, jumping from tree to tree.

Background
Heading west from Voi town along the road to Taveta on the Tanzanian border, east of Mount Kilimanjaro, you'd be forgiven for thinking that the entirety of Taita-Taveta District, which encompasses the southern part of Tsavo West National Park, is merely flat and featureless scrubland, dominated by dusty orange sand, a few clumps of thorn trees, and not much else. Yet if you turn right at Mwaktau, 25km west of Voi, a switchback tarmac road to the district capital of Wundanyi begins a rapid ascent into a surprisingly fertile, densely populated and beautiful land, replete with vertiginous cliffs, rushing rivulets and waterfalls. Beautiful in its own right, the contrast with the dreary semi-desertic plains below is astonishing.
The Taita Hills are home of the Bantu-speaking Taita people and the closely-related Sagalla, who sought refuge here from the continuous attacks and raids of the Maasai from the west and Oromo-speaking peoples from the north. Now numbering over 250,000 (including some 10,000 Sagalla), the great majority (almost 80%) practice agriculture mixed with limited animal husbandry, whilst 8-12% are engaged in waged labour and trade.

At that time we did not know just how corrupt Kenyan culture really is. If we remain ignorant of Kenyan culture, I am convinced we will do them and the
http://allanturner.com/article14.html
Culture And Its Influence (Written from Kenya, East Africa, March, 1994.) In Paul's letter to Titus, we learn that Cretan culture was very bad. In Titus 1:12, Paul wrote: “One of them, a prophet of their own, said, 'Cretans are always liars, evil beasts, lazy gluttons.' This testimony is true. Therefore, rebuke them sharply, that they may be sound in the faith.” We can be sure that Paul was not just being uncouth. Neither was he addressing the integrity of every single Cretan. He was, instead, reminding Titus of the persuasive influence of culture. In Cretan society, there was a general lack of integrity among the people. By and large, they were a cruel and savage people who would selfishly push everyone out of their way in order to gain an advantage for themselves. In addition, they were pleasure-loving (viz., they loved to eat) and lazy. “Cretinism” or “Cretan behavior,” in the ancient world meant “lying.” According to the ancient writers, the Cretans were experts at lying, cheating, and stealing. To them, “no profit is ever disgraceful” ( The Histories VI, 46). Their forte, according to Titus 1:11, was “dishonest gain.” Consequently, it should not surprise us that the Philistines, who are still listed in our modern dictionaries as a rude, crude, vulgar, and barbaric people, were, according to Amos 9:7, descendants of “Caphtor” or Crete.

The Middle School has a peer helper program overseen by the school counselor. Students, with guidance, assist each other in addressing social and academic problems. There is an active Student Council (STUCO) in the Middle School and all students are invited to join. STUCO mainly organizes social activities for the Middle School, such as socials (dances) every 6 weeks or so, spirit weeks and a year-end dance. STUCO has been instrumental in planning and paying for the development of the lower field. We have various fund-raisers, such as activities at the Back to School picnic, selling drinks at the MUN Dance, our own socials. The funds are used for MS improvements, such as equipment for the dances and the lower field. In addition, we have donated funds to charitable causes (Dagoretti Street children last year) and are trying to get more involved in service projects, such as organizing collections for the needy and actually donating service hours. Currently under discussion are plans to read to children at Gertrude's Garden Children's Hospital. The Model United Nations and Interdisciplinary Week are annual activities. In the MUN students assume the roles of representatives of selected countries, create resolutions and debate issues. During the Interdisciplinary Week a theme is chosen. Research, group work and presentations associated with that theme are conducted. Last year's theme was stress, and the resulting colorful murals can be seen throughout the campus.

Bringing Kenya to Bethel by Holly Donato '78 Thirty Bethel University undergraduate students learned elementary Swahili and delved into the traditions of the Kikuyu, Luhya, and Luo people in a cultural immersion class on Kenya during January's interim. Susie Brooks, a Kenyan native of the Luhya tribe and a staff member at Bethel's Center for Graduate and Continuing Studies (CGCS), taught the course Kenyan Culture for the second consecutive interim. She proposed and designed the unique experience for a practical purpose. "This course equips students with skills in developing an understanding and appreciation of other cultures, not just the Kenyan culture," says Brooks. In one session, the class role-played how Kenyans and Americans would handle a business meeting differently. "While Kenyans would put the relationship first and want to learn about the business acquaintance and his or her family," says Brooks, "Americans would want to get right down to business." "Kenyans and Americans can learn a lot from each other," says Brooks. "I'm glad I can help that take place in my class."
