Acknowledgments

W E ARE PLEASED to acknowledge the help we received from different quarters in putting together this book project. Our first debt of gratitude goes to the British Council/Development Partnerships in Higher Education (DelPHE) of the UK government for providing the enabling research grant, without which this project would likely not have been undertaken. Pauline Gangla, George Kogolla, and Dyonis Ndungu of the British Council DelPHE Program Management team in Nairobi, Kenya, deserve a special mention for efficiently facilitating the project grant administration, thereby enabling us to not only accomplish this book project, but to complete diverse capacity-building program activities in the three African project partner universities: United States International University (USIU) in Kenya, Gulu University in Uganda, and the University of Lubumbashi in the Democratic Republic of Congo.

We are exceptionally grateful to colleagues at USIU in Nairobi, especially Moses Onyango, Doreen Alusa, John Mwangi, Prof. Macharia Munene, Prof. Fredrick Iraki, Prof. James Kahindi, and Prof. Munyae Mulinge. At the University of Tennessee we thank Prof. Rosalind I. J. Hackett, Julia Hanebrink, Randal Hepner, and all those involved in Jazz for Justice and the Gulu Study and Service Abroad Program in both Tennessee and Uganda for their professional and moral support.

To all the chapter contributors and manuscript reviewers, we say a big thank you for your commitment and professionalism.
