The workshop aimed to validate various aspects related to digital hubs, including the locations of the sites, digital needs and challenges, services and facilities offered by the hubs, as well as their management and sustainability.
These concepts all aim to facilitate digital growth in communities using different strategies. They have been applied in designing a digital hub for Mathare, with the goal of creating a model that can be replicated in other informal settlements.
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.
Despite the digital progression, the urban poor communities in informal settlements remain excluded from the digital mobility which increases their vulnerability to multifaceted shocks.
