The launch of the Dedan Kimathi University of Technology Ethics and Integrity Club (DeEIC)
The DeKUT Nairobi Campus launched the Dedan Kimathi University of Technology Ethics and Integrity Club (DeEIC) after successfully implementing our University's Global Integrity Education Project (GIE). The club was registered on 5th July 2023, patronized by the Director Institute of Criminology, Forensics and Security Studies and Nairobi Campus.
The GIE project is funded by the United Nations Office on Drugs and Crime (UNODC), aiming to develop and implement an innovative way in which ethics and integrity education content can be mainstreamed in the University teaching programs in three countries: Kenya, Pakistan and Mexico.
