dc.description.abstract | A lot of literature on ur ban development in developing countries has entirely focused on the nexus between rapid urbanization, Gross Geographic Pr oduct (GGP) and poverty growth with little research that demonstr ates what this impacts on urban sustainability especially with incr easing slums in rapidly urbanizing African countries. Available research has focused entirely on increasing poverty level in urban Africa and its mitigation without a clear direction on what this means to slums improvement and urban sustainability. This papers aims to give a conceptual analysis that will help to understand the dynamics of urban sustainability and slums development. The historical perspectives and current realities of Kibera slums in Nairobi are reviewed. | en |
