...AND A BIT OF NEWS ABOUT WHAT WE'RE UP TO |
Changing Faces CompetitionPublic Space Network are launching their first city-wide competition entitled "Changing Faces" and we at Kayole Mtaa Safi are thrilled to be a part of it. All around Nairobi, teams of youth will be competing to make their chosen public space the cleanest, greenest and safest - and creating jobs for themselves in the process. Each team will identify a public open space it wants to improve: a bus stop, footbridge, street, playground, wall, courtyard, sidewalk, dumpsite, market place, park, police station – even a base ya mtaa. The competition begins around the end of October and runs for nine weeks. We have picked out a street in Kayole which is perfect for turning into an attractive and productive public space and we are meeting with stakeholders and making plans. We will need to demonstrate the effect the transformation has on the users of the space and the surrounding community and will need to submit a sustainability plan to ensure the long-term maintenance and ongoing impact. We submit five photos before, five during, and five after the intervention so that the judges can compare the impact and scope of the transformation. The competition kicks off in Dandora, where the Changing Faces Competition was born. It will showcase the transformations that have resulted from previous competitions and hopefully inspire teams from other parts of Nairobi. The award ceremony will celebrate all cityshapers taking part in the 2018 Changing Faces Competition and will award the best transformations.
