Kenyan Connection: Building Bridges Across Continents
Published on September 29, 2025

Last week, our new Head of Policy Research, Dr Christopher A. Johnson, met with Clive Asande, Business Development Manager of Strathmore University Business School (SBS), Nairobi, Kenya. The discussions included Fair Trade, co-operatives, and research gaps in the performance of small and medium-sized enterprises (SMEs). The exchange was insightful and laid the groundwork for future collaboration.
This exciting development marks a significant step in our mission to forge international partnerships that strengthen the Black co-operative movement globally. The potential collaboration with Strathmore University Business School opens doors to shared research, knowledge exchange, and cross-cultural learning opportunities.
Stay tuned for more updates as this partnership develops and brings new opportunities for our community and beyond.
