The problem and the solution. Kenya has a long history, beginning with colonial rule and following through independence, of a lack of autonomy within its politics and economy. Add to this the shortage of resources for education, lack of a stable economy, high birth rate, and devastating impact of AIDS/HIV, and Kenya has severe problems with economic development. Its last two national development plans, however, have assigned to human resource development (HRD) a key role in improving the economic well-being of the country and its population.
