Social mapping in Korogocho and Viwandani, Nairobi
The Accountability and Responsiveness in Informal Settlements for Equity (ARISE) project seeks to understand the role of accountability in improving health and wellbeing inequities of marginalised and vulnerable groups living and working in informal urban spaces in Bangladesh, India, Kenya and Sierra Leone.
Mapping of the social and governance terrain was conducted in the first phase of the study (Mapping Phase), to understand how existing governance and accountability systems affect the health and well-being of residents living and working in the study sites, Korogocho and Viwandani. This brief presents methods, key findings and recommendations from social mapping in Korogocho and Viwandani settlements.
