About the Journal

Hekima Review (HR), an academic journal of Hekima University College (HUC), Nairobi, Kenya,  is an international, open-access, peer-reviewed Journal of Theology, Governance and Peace Studies. With an editorial board of leading scholars and experts, HR publishes research articles, book reviews, and poetically crafted texts in scriptures, theology, religious studies, governance, peace studies, international relations, and relevant disciplines. To uphold its scholarly integrity and quality, each published article undergoes blind reviews from at least two experts, chosen in line with the discourse of the article. HR has been in continuous publication bi-annually since its inception in 1988, committing to intellectual originality and depth.

Hekima Review aims to create an international forum for constructive dialogue between professional theological and social writers and analysts and literate readers by disseminating scholarly reflections, critical discussions and informed views on theological, peace, security and governance related matters in Africa. It also hopes to contribute to the mission of the African and universal Church, particularly in the proclamation of the gospel, the struggle for justice and the development of peoples. Thus, it seeks to foster discernment on ways towards the integral development of humanity and to focus attention on authentic human values.
