Evaluation Of The Slum House Upgrading Programmes A Case Study Of Nairobi District, Kibera Division In Kenya.

ABSTRACT

The study is concerned with evaluation of slum house upgrading

programmes. The variables under the study were activities under slum house

upgrading programme, levels of community participation and level of

community accessibility to the upgraded slum houses.

The supportive respondents consisted of governmental and nongovernmental

organizations, who were involved in attempting to help

solve the problem of informal settlement.

Lack of land was a major contributing factor to mushrooming of informal

settlements thus the crowding of large numbers of people in one area

which happens to be a small piece of land.

Lack of national housing policy framework has also greatly contributed

to proliferation of informal settlement. The policy paper or document

should be reviewed from time to time so as to facilitate provision of

maximum number of people with adequate shelter and a healthy living

environment at the lowest possible cost.

The movement of people from rural areas to urban areas which is also

known as rural urban migration has also led to settlement of people in

parts of the study area not meant for such kind of living thus resulting in

slums or informal settlement.

The main recommendations of the study were that kind matters should

be reconsidered in issues pertaining slum house upgrading.

The community members should also be involved in looking for ways to improve slum houses and in making decisions which affect them.
