This short video clip shows what the conditions are outside one of the few (if not the only) hospitals in Kibera. When the video ends, you are looking up a narrow path with waste water running down the middle. The hospital entrance is about 20 feet up the path, on the right side.

Video of Kibera

This video gives a sense of how crowded it is in Kibera -- an area about 75% as large as New York's Central Park that is home to roughly 1.5 million people. This short clip shows part of the path our group followed to get to the Girls Soccer Academy, a high school we visited in Kibera. As we walked, it took about 3-4 minutes of winding single-file past narrow corridors and occasionally ducking to avoid people's laundry. We visited on July 7, 2009, well after the rainy season. I wonder how different Kibera is during the rainy season, when dirt floors turn to mud.
