About this Podcast
HOST: Welcome to our podcast, today we're talking with Dr. Mwikali, an expert in Kamba customary law and the instructor of the Advanced Certificate in Legal Kamba Protocols. Dr. Mwikali, can you tell us a bit about your experience and what inspired you to create this course? GUEST: Thank you for having me. I've spent over two decades researching and practicing Kamba customary law. I saw a need for legal professionals to better understand these unique protocols to serve the community effectively. HOST: That's fascinating. How does understanding Kamba customary law enhance a legal professional's practice? GUEST: Having expertise in Kamba legal protocols gives practitioners a competitive edge, especially when working with Kamba clients. It also promotes cross-cultural competence and enhances dispute resolution. HOST: Speaking of dispute resolution, can you share some insights on Kamba dispute resolution mechanisms and how they differ from statutory law? GUEST: Of course. Kamba dispute resolution emphasizes mediation and negotiation, often prioritizing communal harmony over individual rights. This contrasts with statutory law, which tends to focus on individual rights and formal court procedures. HOST: Interesting. I imagine there must be challenges in navigating the intersection of customary and statutory law. Can you elaborate on that? GUEST: Absolutely. Balancing the two systems can be tricky, as they have different priorities and procedures. Our course helps learners develop the skills to navigate this complex landscape. HOST: That's invaluable. Lastly, how do you see the future of Kamba legal protocols in the broader legal field? GUEST: I believe there's growing recognition of the importance of customary law in the legal profession. As society becomes more diverse, understanding and integrating customary laws, like Kamba protocols, will be crucial for legal practitioners. HOST: Dr. Mwikali, thank you for sharing your insights and for developing this unique course. To our listeners, learn more about the Advanced Certificate in Legal Kamba Protocols and enroll today!
