Predictive and concurrent validity of caregiver reported early childhood development assessments
Many directly assessed and caregiver-reported measures of early childhood development (ECD) are used to monitor outcomes and evaluate interventions in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs). Many assessments of ECD for children 0–3 years old have robust psychometric properties, but relatively little is known about their ability to predict later developmental and learning outcomes. To address questions about predictive and concurrent validity, w…
Facility-based care for moderately low birthweight infants in India, Malawi, and Tanzania
Globally, increasing rates of facility-based childbirth enable early intervention for small vulnerable newborns. We describe health system-level inputs, current feeding, and discharge practices for moderately low birthweight (MLBW) infants (1500- 10% less than their birthweight; 18.8% of infants were discharged with weights below facility-specific policy [1800g in India, 1500g in Malawi, and 2000g in Tanzania]. Based on descriptive analysis, we f…
Safe infant feeding in healthcare facilities
Infants need to receive care in environments that limit their exposure to pathogens. Inadequate water, sanitation, and hygiene (WASH) environments and suboptimal infection prevention and control practices in healthcare settings contribute to the burden of healthcare-associated infections, which are particularly high in low-income settings. Specific research is needed to understand infant feeding preparation in healthcare settings, a task involvin…
Public Servants’ Perception on Discipline Management and Justice in Tanzania Public Service
This paper assesses public servants’ perception on how justice is dispensed by disciplinary authorities in Tanzania’s public service. The attributes assessed were; adherence to legislations and disciplinary procedures, progressive discipline, employees’ involvement in disciplinary proceedings, parity between punishments given to offenses committed and power struggle among disciplinary authorities. Bureaucratic theory informed the study by showing…
The Historical and Political Backdrop to Islamic Studies in Kenya
This paper argues that the lack of serious attempts to incorporate Islamic studies in Kenya’s academic culture can best be understood by looking at the colonial and postcolonial policies toward university education there. The early missionary influence that shaped the nature of the indigenous educational system had a farreaching impact upon creating a culture of resistance among Muslims toward western education. In the postcolonial period, the ne…
A Place at the Table
Kenyan Muslims are well integrated within the Kenyan political system. This process of political integration gained momentum when President Daniel Arap Moi regained power after the aborted military coup attempt by the Kenya Air Force in August 1982. His increasingly authoritarian rule faced a challenge from the younger generation of politicians who began to challenge his legitimacy because of the loss of basic democratic rights through mass demon…
Becoming Muslim in Mainland Tanzania, 1890-2000 * By Felicitas Becker
One of the most controversial aspects in the study of Islam and Muslims in East Africa is the determination of their demographic spread. To date there are no reliable statistics because governments are averse to including the question of religious affiliation in their national census, partly because the national constitutions of Kenya, Tanzania and Uganda are categorical that these are secular states, and partly because of the need to maintain na…
Between Social Skills and Marketable Skills
Many regional centres that have enriched the global Islamic intellectual tradition have become well known thanks to the research done on, say, West and North Africa, South and Southeast Asia. However, until this important study by Professor Roman Loimeier, we had little understanding of that tradition in East Africa. It is no coicidence that Loimeier started out in West Africa, in Nigeria, where he looked at the contemporary reform movements and …
