Map Kibera Concludes Follow Up On Security Light Mapping Respondents

Map Kibera, together with Livelihood Impact Fund, have concluded the first phase of the phone call follow-up on first respondents of the Security Lighting Impact survey, that took place in Gatwekera, Kianda and Soweto villages of Kibera.
The experience has been good so far


According to our enumerator Prinscilla Avichinga, most respondents answered the additional questions positively.
Some of the residents the enumerators spoke to, were happy about the follow up questions and commended the enumerators for a ‘delivering the promise without asking for money in return’.
Some were quick to add their own suggestions through the calls, on how they wanted the lights set up, for better security within their businesses along the road.
The challenges the enumerators encountered through the phone call included abusive and rude response from some residents, some calling back in the late hours of the night.
Others hanged up without getting the full information while some gave the phones to kids to answer for them.
A few had moved out of Kibera and were either upcountry, or living elsewhere within Nairobi.
