Critical Commentary
This image is from the opening of a community library in Tharaka Nithi County. The library was built on land donated by the county and the construction funded by USAID. It shows how the Kenyan government - national or county - does not invest much in knowledge production. In this case, a county government has relied on a partnership with a foreign entity to develop a community library.
