The community pointed out that their digital needs were access to information, CBC learning, digital literacy and online marketing as well as accessing social media and other entertainment sites.
Participants discussed ways of tackling research waste, which predominantly included community engagement from research conceptualization to dissemination and openly sharing data and research outputs with the community and other stakeholders in the Mathare.
The workshop provided an avenue for cross-pollination and inter-city learning through presentations and participatory design sessions.
