KEEPING KIDS IN SCHOOL IN NAIROBI’S MATHARE SLUMS
A recent study by UNESCO Institute for Statistics 2021 found that in Kenya, there were at least 1.1 million primary school-aged children out of the classroom – Especially in rural communities and crowded urban slums like Mathare.
Inspired by his struggles growing up in the Mathare slums of Nairobi, Douglas Mwangi A-K-A DUKE of Mathare wanted to change that image and founded Oasis Mathare. A youth-led organization allows young people lacking internet access to join educational courses using innovative technology.
