Muungano Wa Wanavijiji strongly condemns the recent unjust arrests of 26 youths on 8th May, who were peacefully raising their concerns over the worsening floodings exacerbated by evictions.
A statement from Rashid Mutua, Chairman of Muungano wa Wanavijiji. Join us as we support those in need.

Informal settlement communities bear the brunt of rainy season floods, intensified by the harsh impacts of climate change. Recent floods have resulted in tragic losses, including deaths, property destruction, forced evictions, and various other challenges. These dire circumstances compel us to take immediate action. We are urgently working to reach over 62,000 hard-to-reach affected families.

The community of #Abokicodji in #Cotonou is under immediate threat of eviction w/o compensation or resettlement. The authorities have given them until Monday. See the faces of PLWDs, children, women who will be left homeless if the action is not stopped. #ForcedEvictionNeverAgain
When you demolish peoples homes with no notice itโs not #urbanrenewal โ itโs #forcedeviction. What is left for upgrading when the buildings are gone and the residents are chased away? @lasura_lasg
1 year since the #conflict in #Sudan - sad and wonderful memories of the work with @SSudtt colleagues within #IDEAMAPSudan - a forgotten conflict with millions displaced. We hope to continue our work on democracy and inclusive urban planning https://t.co/Y5Jd355toE @FacultyITC
The weather man has said more rains expected, devastating effects are being felt in every corner of the cities and far beyond. The #Space4All project will help us understand in depth flood patterns direct effects after effects and many more
@MonikaKuffer@FacultyITC
Satellite imagery shows ~364 buildings / building clusters affected thus far in the #Otto forced eviction โ rumors the demolition will continue to neighboring #Otumara community โ #EndForcedEvictions now!

We need proper drainage for a better Nairobi!
Current situation in Mukuru Kwa Reuben, which has resulted in many losses, including property and lives. It is time @047County addresses the issue of poor drainage once and for all!
