Abstract

A report of the community enumeration by the residents of Riara village in Mukuru Kwa Njenga slum of Nairobi, presents findings on land, ownership, tenure, population, employment, education, and infrastructure, towards planning the upgrade of the area in alignment with Kenya’s new Constitution. Households usually live on land informally held by private individuals, who often acquired their parcels in unclear legal circumstances. The enumeration is intended to survey and expose the current informal arrangements of tenure in order to measure current and projected demand for housing and include the community’s interests in the upgrade scheme.
