Poverty in the Nairobi Slums

Fire at Mukuru kwa Sinai. The slum dwellers collect the iron sheets that did not burn to rebuild their homes again.

There are many aspects to the poverty that the Nairobi slum dwellers experience. But despite this great poverty, there is a dignity, solidarity and efforts to come out of it.

We present some papers, documents and studies about the situation of poverty in the Nairobi slums.
