本文探讨了本土戏剧表演 (ITP) 在肯尼亚建设和平中的作用和未来。它重点关注基库尤族、卢希亚族和洛族社区的仪式、讲故事、谚语以及歌舞传统，作为肯尼亚 ITP 的具体案例。虽然主要焦点是目前这些艺术形式在建设和平举措中的使用，但文章认为，ITP 可以成为解决冲突中表现出来的结构性和其他形式不公正现象的有力工具。因此，如果制定一个明确的框架来支持其应用，ITP 可以为建设和平努力做出巨大贡献。
This article examines the role and future of indigenous theatrical performances (ITPs) in peacebuilding in Kenya. It focuses on the Kikuyu, Luhya, and Luo communities’ traditions of ritual, storytelling, proverb, and song and dance as specific cases of ITPs in Kenya. While the main focus is on the current use of these art forms in peacebuilding initiatives, the article argues that ITPs can be a powerful tool in addressing structural and other forms of injustices that manifest themselves in conflicts. As such, ITPs can greatly contribute to peacebuilding efforts if a clear framework to support their application is developed.
