"The benefits extend far beyond health and waste management. Ambulances now navigate the settlement with precision, cutting down critical response times in medical emergencies. Firefighters can locate and respond to outbreaks swiftly, potentially saving lives and property." ⬇️
We've got a brilliant new photo blog about the physical addressing project in Mathare 4B settlement in Nairobi, led by our partners @sdi_net and @wanavijiji_sdi
