Nai Nami
www.nai-nami.comNai Nami is a social enterprise with the aim to give disadvantaged youth from slums a future in life. Nai Nami’s approach is innovative and unique: we harness the street skills and life stories of street children with criminal pasts, empowering them to create value for society. Our sustainable business model enables these youths to showcase their life stories and monetize their street skills, by working as storyteller guides on an inspiring city tour in downtown Nairobi (not in the slums). Tourists have the chance to experience Nairobi through the eyes of former street children and our guides have a full-time job, a stable income and an interface to connect with people from all over the world. Who else knows Nairobi better than youth from the slums who grew up on the streets of downtown? During a 3-hours walking tour in the city centre, your personal guides will make you experience their so-called former “home” and share with you their captivating life stories connected to the places you visit. They will tell you how they ended up in the streets, show you how they survived through hustling, begging and crime, teach you their street skills, give you the real local insights and inspire you with their ghetto-energy. Even more important, they will share with you how they transformed to reasonable young men and how they look back on their former lifestyle. The tour is one-on-one to facilitate an inspiring exchange between you and your guides.
