After weeks of conducting surveys in the villages of Soweto West, parts of Gatwekera Village, Makina and Kianda. Kibera Town Centre, who are part of a joint project funded by Livelihood Impact Fund, that also include Map Kibera Trust who head the survey team, erected street lights along Kona club-Gatwekera road.
The lights will address the security concerns raised by the residents during the survey, such as muggings along the dark corridors, fears of robbery incidences for businesses that run until late in the night.
The lights were erected in line with the feedback collected from the survey, as a way of giving back to the community.
The ongoing project will have a second phase of the survey, where enumerators will once again visit members of the community to asses the impact of the lightings and how that translate to improvement of livelihood within the community, in terms of income, business expansions, general security among other factors.
