ABSTRACT
The study highlights the interplay between land laws and laws governing succession
and human rights dispensation in the application of the legal norms, focusing on how
the practices on land ownership influence the enjoyment of succession rights in Kenya.
The land and succession laws are municipal in nature; they have great ramifications in
relation to the fulfillment of national obligations in international human rights law, and
are influenced by the provisions pertaining to both civil and political rights as well as
economic, social and cultural rights as herein discussed.
This research is arranged in five parts discussing the issues relating to land and
succession rights in Kenya, how they are implemented and how they can be improved.
This research is focused on finding out the constraints of the enjoyment of human
rights when it comes to succession of land in Kenya. It will investigate the rights
embedded on the succession laws as well as make appropriate recommendations that
will help improve the challenges faced in the law of succession in Kenya. This research
has been carried out using libraries, textbooks, journals, resource centres and the
internet to obtain information.
This research has also come up with ways to improve the rights of people when it
comes to succession and this is by consolidating the already existing laws, amending
the land laws, resettling the squatters, educating the public about their rights and getting more assistance from human rights bodies.
