Learner-centered experiential approaches such as adoption of vignettes focus on practical experiences and applications in teaching business ethics. Vignettes of different types provide scenarios of events that are logical in order to help learners develop an ethical sensitivity that would influence their decision-making skill. This study focused on adoption of narrative, illustrations, repertoires, documentaries or scripts used as instructional resources for instilling ethical sensitivity among business education students. The study adopted contingency framework for ethical decision-making and targeted 102 year-three business education students at University of Nairobi. Through random sampling 58 students provided information, which was descriptively analysed. Study findings indicated that 93.6% business education students agreed that narratives, 81.8% illustration, 78.6% repertoire, 90.9% documentaries and 97.0% scripts enhance decision-making. The study recommended that teachers be advised to adopted different types of vignettes in teaching, schools provide budgetary allocation for vignettes production and further research on to establish how much vignettes have been used in schools for business studies.

“…1106 The president of the Court is, apart from directing work to the appellate division, responsible for all forms of administration and supervision of the Court of the East African Community. 1107 The Treaty, however, does not regulate the gender equality regarding the Court's composition. This is interpreted to be a drawback for women in the EAC, whose position, with regards to gender equality, is generally strengthened by the Treaty.…”

“…Wauna LO Oluoch, however, feels that 'this argument cannot stand, given the plain distinctive meaning of the two articles.' 1113 At the time of appointment, some judges were holding offices at a domestic court, and furthermore, some of the judges were refusing to withdraw from their national office while working at EACJ, which led to several conflicts. 1114…”

“…Moreover, it has to be noted that none of the judges inaugurated at the EACJ was recommended by any of the Member States -it appears that the governments of Member States use these appointments as a reward for the best judges of their national court. 1159 More than ever, the realization of the individual human rights remains a privilege of the elite and hence are often far-removed from and inaccessible to average EAC citizens.…”

After World War II as well as the Cold War, the political landscape of Africa changed fundamentally. In a long process, which lasted up to the mid 1990s, the remaining territories under colonial domination achieved independence. In order to promote peace, independence and development, African States started a close cooperation lasting until today. The cooperation effectively started out at regional level but was soon accompanied by developments at subregional level. Diverse structures emerged for this purpose and developed over time. Thus all regional and subregional structures started developing their own institutions and processes in order to ensure the implementation of the respective objectives.The process of regional and subregional integration was linked to the post-war international order and the United Nations system more specifically. Thus the regional and subregional integration process within Africa served different objectives, such as the maintenance of peace and security, development and economic integration. However, with the end of colonization human rights and democratic participation played an increasing role in this process. This study will explore, how these two aspects emerged in terms of rules and institutions. It will also assess the working of related institutions in practice in order to assess the effectiveness of human rights protection and democratic participation in African regional and subregional integration. The protection of human rights and a functioning democracy -also at regional and sub-regional level -are closely interlinked.
