It\u2019s about unblocking access – to basic services, to decent livelihoods, to public spaces that heal rather than harm.<\/p>\n
It’s about taking the promises of the Bottom-Up Economic Transformation Agenda (BETA) and turning them into brick, path, and canopy – especially for the people who need them most.<\/p>\n
The project, nestled within the broader Nairobi River Basin Restoration Programme, is upgrading infrastructure, revitalizing shared spaces, and creating safe environments.<\/p>\n
At its core is a belief that cities can grow without leaving their most vulnerable behind.<\/p>\n
But the Lucky Summer initiative doesn\u2019t stop at infrastructure.<\/p>\n

Through hands-on river clean-ups, tree planting, and the establishment of green corridors, Climate WorX is bringing the rivers back to life.<\/p>\n
