dc.description.abstract | This research project was carried out to establish the role of commercial diplomacy in
facilitating international business at the Kenya High Commission in Kampala and the
challenges they faced. Commercial diplomacy is a new avenue for countries to promote
international trade with friendly states. To realize the objectives of the research, a case
study was conducted at the Kenya High Commission in Kampala. Data was collected by
use of personal interviews with open-ended questions administered to the Assistant
Commercial Attaché at the Kenya High Commission in Kampala and a Kenyan investor.
The information was presented and discussed as per the objectives and research questions
of the study. The researcher employed content analysis to make inferences of the
information collected. The findings of the study showed that the Kenya High
Commission in Uganda has facilitated international business through a number of ways
such as export promotion, import promotion, international relations, advisory and
consular services as well as tourism promotion. The study recommends that government
through the Kenya High Commission in Uganda should encourage public-private
partnerships through investment forums and conferences, they should provide regular
reports to investors on the investment climate and investment opportunities available in
Kenya and sourcing markets for the Kenyan products. | en |
