| Summary: | This paper is primarily centered on interaction between the advancement of the East African
Crude Oil Pipeline (herein after the EACOP) on one hand and aspects of human rights on the
other hand. This paper shall seek to borrow ideas from land rights, environmental rights and
other right based narratives in demonstrating how and why the EACOP project is not only the
most exciting socioeconomic but also a project giving room for opposing phenomenological
discourses most of which are hinged upon ideas of human rights. This analysis shall therefore
adopt a comparative as well as a reflective research design in asserting that in as much as the
project is economically viable, lesson must be picked from other developing regions where
similar projects have culminated into detrimental consequences upon the communities |
