Since the early twenty first century, the severest conflict and violence took place in Mt. Elgon District around 2005-2007. This book revolves around social dynamics. Various reasons led to the occurrence of conflict and violence in Mt. Elgon. Among the most critical ones included: land related issues; political instigation; poor leadership; and unemployment. Notable impacts of the conflict and violence were: school wastages exacerbated by high rates of school dropouts; repeaters; and, poor academic performance especially in Kopsiro Division; psycho-social traumas; debilitated human resource; and, defunct infrastructure. Neighbouring districts were not spared the scourging impacts such as: Emergence of IDPs; insecurity; and economic crunch. Need for overhaul resuscitation in particularly, the education system including ECDE and non-formal education sectors and establish institutions of higher learning in the district; improve infrastructure; initiate peace building strategies; and, provide awareness in conflict management mechanisms.
