Inspired by a newspaper article in 2015, Thayu Macharia Ndegwa picked up a bow.
Eleven years later, he's Kenya's 2026 Men's Recurve National Champion!
The dream? The Olympics.
The journey continues!

Congratulations, Macharia!
For many colorectal cancer survivors, completing treatment is only one milestone in a much longer journey.
This #ResearchWednesday, we spotlight a @StrathU study revealing the challenges that persist after cancer treatment.
Among 40 survivors who participated:
💰 83% reported lasting financial concerns.
💭 63% feared cancer recurrence.
🩺 59% experienced significant fatigue and pain.
Led by Prof. Bernhards Ogutu of CREATES and fellow researchers, the study calls for stronger survivorship care within Kenya's Universal Health Coverage system, including coordinated follow-up, psychological and nutritional support, rehabilitation and better financial protection.
Surviving cancer should not mean navigating recovery alone.
The end of treatment should mark the beginning of supported recovery, not the end of essential care.

Last month,Strathmore University, through the Strathmore Institute of Management and Technology (SI), welcomed Dr. Elijah Bach, Founder and President of the Bach Institute of Human Development (BIHD), for the official signing of a Memorandum of Understanding (MoU). Presided over by Strathmore University's Deputy Vice-Chancellor, Planning & Partnerships, the signing marked the beginning of a strategic partnership aimed at expanding access to flexible, practical, and impact-driven professional development opportunities across East Africa.
Through this collaboration, Strathmore University will serve as the regional gateway for five specialised, six-week online certification programmes delivered through BIHD's fully automated digital learning platform:
- Parent Coach
- Senior Care Professional
- Special Needs Paraprofessional
- Professional Nanny
- Mental Wellness Coach
The partnership brings together BIHD's innovative digital learning and assessment model with Strathmore University's commitment to academic excellence, professional development, and meaningful community impact.
Designed with accessibility and flexibility in mind, the programmes will equip professionals, caregivers, and community workers with practical, industry-relevant skills to address emerging human development needs across the region.

This #ResearchWednesday, we celebrate @StrathU's selection as one of six Kenyan institutions in the Google.org-funded Africa AI Upskilling Programme.
Through Strathmore School of Computing and Engineering Sciences (SCES), five AI Champions and five Teaching Assistants will help equip students with practical AI skills, from neural networks to responsible innovation.
The lingering question is, 'Will Africa simply consume AI, or help create its future?' At @StrathU, we believe Africa's AI future should be built here.

A huge congratulations to Team Kenya for emerging Second Overall at the African Scrabble Championship in Liberia, finishing behind Nigeria and ahead of the host nation!
And there's an extra reason for the @StrathU fraternity to celebrate! 🎉
Flying the Kenyan flag were our very own Daniel Machanje, a Strathmore University staff member, and Kuria Githinji, a proud alumnus, proving that the Strathmore connection extends far beyond our campus and into the world of competitive wordplay.
Congratulations to Team Kenya for making the nation proud and to Daniel and Lancelot for giving us yet another reason to celebrate the Strathmore spirit!
