Guide to a community-driven, low-cost public space transformation.

This toolkit aims to provide guidelines to anybody who wants to transform a neglected public open space in their area into a clean and safe community space, such as a community park, a playground or a safe vibrant pedestrian-friendly street. It assembles our experience working with community groups that have transformed such spaces across Nairobi, Kenya and is meant to guide low-cost interventions in public space transformation, especially in the context of developing and resource-limited cities. However, we welcome also residents of more developed cities to get inspired and champion for a community-driven public space transformation in their context.
