Addressing Construction Related Disputes in Kenya. Balancing Growth and Environmental Preservation through Alternative Dispute Resolution

      Аннотация: The construction industry in Kenya has experienced rapid growth in recent years, driven by increasing demand for infrastructure development and urbanization. However, this growth has come at a cost, with many construction activities leading to environmental harm, including deforestation, soil erosion, and water pollution. The environmental harm caused by construction activities has led to a rise in disputes between construction companies and affected parties, including local communities, environmental groups, and government agencies. Despite the existence of environmental laws and regulations in Kenya, enforcement has been a challenge, with many corporations failing to comply with environmental regulations. This has resulted in a high number of disputes and legal challenges, which can be costly and time-consuming for all parties involved. To address the issue of construction-related disputes in Kenya, there is a need for greater awareness and enforcement of environmental laws and regulations, as well as improved communication and consultation between construction companies, affected parties, and government agencies.
