5. Most important? Now underline the 3 that are the most important to get sorted straightaway How did you decide? Was it difficult to prioritise?

6. Pro-Poor Tours One way that Kibera is helping itself out of poverty is by running tours of the slums for interested tourists. What do you think about this?

7. Meet Jamahl… Jamahl

8. What does this have to do with Pro-Poor Tours? Jamahl is able to attend school because of the money his father makes selling baskets to tourists that visit his home as part of the Pro-Poor Tours. All he needed was someone with the money to buy them…

9. Your task You need to design a tour programme for the tour company to encourage tourists to go on the Pro-Poor Tour of the Kibera shanty town.

10. Your Pro-Poor Tour Programme should… describe the types of things they will see (include pictures) describe the benefits that their visit could bring to the community of Kibera decide how you think any profits should be spent (think back to the starter) and include information about long term improvements that the tourists’ visit could bring.

11. Plenary Reflect on Jamahl’s life- how much difference do you think Pro-Poor Tours will make to his future?
