A report from MIT researchers rigorously analyzes an ongoing data collection effort by CFK Africa to study which interventions have the best effect on boosting the rate of primary school graduation among students in informal settlements like Kibera in Nairobi.
“The new research from our partners at MIT will help us fine-tune our programs. We are eagerly awaiting this next phase of the Best Schools Initiative to help students in informal settlements gain more educational opportunities which lead to better academic outcomes.”
With experience traveling and living in informal settlements in Africa, India, and China, our newest Advisory Council member, Steve Arnold, reflects on the importance of social context and listening in effective development work.
CFK Africa is a registered NGO in Kenya and 501(c)(3) nonprofit in the U.S. that improves public health and economic prosperity in informal settlements through participatory research, primary health care, and education.
