Welcome to Kibera

This is an indigenous association of Kibera Women for self emancipation. Kibera is one of Africa's largest slum communities. Living in such an environment without an income generating activity is the most disgusting experience. Kibera Women for Independence was formed to help empower women groups in Kibera slum with skills in creating and selling traditional jewelery. Volunteers and well wishers have contributed to this project through  direct donations or by purchasing a product.
