Targeted School Feeding Towards Improved Enrolment
No full textAccess to education is a priority for the Kenyan government reflected in increased budgetary allocation towards the sector, provision of free primary education and implementation of free day secondary school since 2003 and 2008, respectively. These policy decisions have led to an improvement in various education sector indicators including enrolment and dropout rates, higher retention and better transition rates across levels of basic education. The result of these efforts saw a 57 percent increase in primary school enrolment between 2003 and 2020 and secondary school enrolment increased by 79 percent between 2007 and 2020.The Kenyan government invests billions of shillings in School Feeding Programme (SFP)to encourage school enrollment, attendance, and completion, and to reduce regional and social disparities in education attainment. School feeding programme began in 1979 with a government led school milk program commonly called the “Nyayo Milk.” Subsequently, various school feeding programmes (SFPs) have been implemented by the national and county governments in conjunction with the World Food Programme (WFP), and other Non-Governmental Organizations (NGOs)

The identification of ultra-violet absorbers in recovered glycol and their effects on polymer color, 1978
Get PDFThis study was conducted to identify the ultra-violet (UV) absorbing impurities in recovered glycol, their methods of formation and effects on polymer color. The identification of the ultra-violet absorbing impurities was made by utilizing ultra-violet spectroscopic and gas chromatographic (GC) analytical techniques. Some supportive techniques, such as functional group analysis, were also used. The UV absorbing impurities in recovered glycol were found to be phenols, acetaldehyde and products of glycol side reactions. Degradation (hydrolysis and thermolysis) is the overriding color-producing factor where solid or liquid rework is involved. The prime contributors to degradation are: phenols (pH-lowering), acetaldehyde (glyco and PET- degradation), heavy metal content and oxygen
