The PhD Defence: Staying Well Before, During, and After the Viva
This month, we're joined by Dr. Kamau Wairuri. Kamau is a Kenyan researcher, educator and policy consultant with expertise in the politics of policing, violence and criminal justice in Africa. Presently, he is a lecturer in criminology at Edinburgh Napier University and a Research Fellow at the Institute of Public Policy and Governance at the Strathmore University Business School (Nairobi, Kenya).
