Slum Changers
The Alleestraße secondary school in Siegburg is building a bridge to Korogocho, Nairobi’s third largest slum. There has never been anything like it: An “online bridge” brought together pupils from Siegburg’s Alleestraße secondary school and children and young people from Nairobi’s third-largest slum, Korogocho.
Every year GSA holds a special event for marginalized children and young people. The two-day event popularly referred to as ‘Tag für Korogocho’ aims to create awareness of the imbalances in opportunities for children and young people across the world especially those in slums. This event also recognizes and supports Ayiera Initiative’s efforts in creating opportunities for young people through education, empowerment, and talent development.
