Viwandani and Korogocho

Jul 30 2009

Viwandani and Korogocho are two of the worst, unsafe slums in Nairobi. In March we were asked by the Trust for Indigenous Culture and Health (TICAH) to partner on a children's art project in Viwandani and Korogocho. The focus of the project was to encourage the children to express their views on health- physical, emotional, mental and spiritual. Four young artists from the two communities were chosen and trained to work alongside of us. The vast number of children wanting to be part of the group was overwhelming. Often we worked with more than 50 children in a day. They painted together on large canvases and also on walls within the community.
