• The key defining element of participation is power
• Participation is situated in particular processes,
localities and actors
• Participation is invitational and not imposed
• Participation is contingent and dependent on how
we ´think participation´

census statistics.

Case Study of Public Participation in Kenya
Coal Mining in Kitui County Kenya.
• Commercially viable coal deposits were discovered in Mui basin of Kitui County in
2010.
• A state of the County report was made available that provided information about
the coal mining project
• Kitui County government mobilized public participation via radios, television,
newspapers and other forums
• Phase one enlisted 500 key participants from professional bodies, religious
organizations, private sector, business associations, civil society and local
community were involved.
• Phase two public participation involved 700 participants. Phase three had 300
participants mainly youth.

Public participation cont’d
• The Government gazetted Liaison Committees for the project. These
committees were elected by communities living in the basin with the
mandate to represent them on matters relating to the coal project.
![Page 45: Meaningful Stakeholder Engagement in the Extractive Sector ... · The Århus Convention, 1998 Article 1: OBJECTIVE In order to contribute to the protection of the right of every person](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022063011/5fc74f41942788158664821e/html5/thumbnails/45.jpg)
Petition in Court of Law
• Despite the three phases of public participation, the community raised a
petition in a court of law to determine whether there was adequate public
participation in the coal mining project.
• Based on the evidence and the numbers of participants and forums for
public participation, the court found that there was adequate public
participation for the coal mining project.
• The community was not satisfied with the ruling and appealed. The basis
for this is a follows:
![Page 46: Meaningful Stakeholder Engagement in the Extractive Sector ... · The Århus Convention, 1998 Article 1: OBJECTIVE In order to contribute to the protection of the right of every person](https://reader035.vdocuments.us/reader035/viewer/2022063011/5fc74f41942788158664821e/html5/thumbnails/46.jpg)
Petition in Court of Law cont’d
• Protection of cultural heritage: It was not clear how the cultural heritage
would be preserved.
• Benefits sharing mechanisms: There was no clear compensation
framework based on the market value of the land and other developments
by the community. In addition, the job opportunities to the local community
was not clearly prioritized.
• Land adjudication. 83% of the locals have not titles to their land and fears
of cartels taking over and freezing the land owners.
• Community fears and expectations: The impact of the project on the
community had not be disclosed.

Current Status
• There were supposed to be community development agreements signed
but this did not happen
• The liaison committee set up held a few sessions in Nairobi and not in the
