China-driven Port Development in Kenya

 The South African Institute of International Affairs published in December 2021 a policy brief titled "China-Driven Port Development: Lessons from Kenya and Malaysia" by Chris Alden, Sergio Chichava, Lu Jiang, Bradley Murg, and Guanie Lim.  

The paper examines the environmental and socio-economic and governance impacts of Chinese-funded and built port projects in Kenya and Malaysia.  Both projects had significant environmental impacts.
