Plotting a better life in Ugandan slums

[@Robinicat]

If the rich African people could donate some of their wealth to rebuild the slum areas, provide decent housing, clean water, latrines, electricity, proper roads and paths, so much suffering could be avoided. No human being should live as they do. Western, rich countries are reluctant to provide aid because rich Africans take it and it usually doesn't reach the poor. Corruption must end if change is to happen.

If only the government moved these innocent people to a activated neighborhood for better life..they need to do that first? Then rebuild the slum for another new neighborhood for all ugandan people? ? But having the wrong leader has a government this problem will never change....

Infrastructure is needed to build infrastructure. In order to sustain the construction of houses and new neighborhoods at a speed higher than the number of new people being born or arriving in these cities, an infrastructure that was previously solid is needed. You need a strong contracting sector and a large working population. If not, the state is limited to supporting only one project at a time, hopefully maybe two. The most realistic solution is to implant infrastructure on the informal constructions. It is to bring formality to these areas. Yes, moving some people to make room for the construction of a more bearable infrastructure. For example ... As they are doing there, mapping the area is the first step. Then it is to determine the quality of the soil. Then, the government, using the same community citizens as labor force and thus giving them a source of income even higher than their jobs at the time. Tear down selected houses where new streets must be built, and underneath, such as sewers and drinking water pipes. Then electricity. That is the main trio of problems that an area can maintain, so immersed in precariousness, if you arrange mobility (streets and public transport); water and electricity, then you can create better economic plans to make the area grow and develop better quality homes. But I faithfully believe what the video says. The community must be involved, in the decision of, which families will be taken out of the slum to tear down their houses (Decide who will receive a social home from the state. Knowing that not all will be able to) and be the workforce in the following "formalization projects " of the community.

How does the government not know where the slums are. I don't believe that.

[@mosesmakumbi2428]

So that they take over people's land when they fail to pay back the loans?

[@0r807]

He did not say that

[@mozambiquefm9772]

Lots of strong men who can do the job of saving the city from all this so called slums

[@irenedavo3768]

How?

[@realtorway6406]

The government should consider low cost building like condominium societies for these locals to do away with slums. Condominiums would use less space for construction for many people and yet they would stay in a better environment.

[@kdtushaberoland3088]

African govt are tooo corrupt they can't go such a thing

Hope the plan will work for the slum areas to create a better living standered

[@illanalevi6091]

This is beautiful, it is a blessing with a lot of potential!!

[@irenedavo3768]

Where are you?

[@josephk7280]

All people in slums need to be moved out of the city into planned neighborhoods - and slum areas re-planned to be part of the city. You cannot manage the slums (putting drainage etc.) it is just a problem that needs to be gotten rid of

[@dyogoduncandickson3808]

Problems are to be solved, not merely getting rid of them - because they will come back to you in the long run.

[@realtorway6406]

Yes, I think the government could even put up low cost buildings

[@malinalama688]

Always for you 🙏🏻

[@limbuvlogs5895]

I love Uganda❤️

[@mauriceadams1440]

I look at how people are living in mansions like hidden hills California and then I look at the poor in Kampala, it hurts and I pray someday our merciful God gives each and every poor person a mansion in his fathers house, I pray to make the poor live one day in joy, Amen

Wonderful!

[@bru-nahsosa]

I wish we had some smart city planners, the only way to clean this is by building projects then move these people to the projects then clear these houses, so simple 🤷🏿‍♂️🤷🏿‍♂️ that’s why other countries are doing and the people like it since no one lose nothing and they find all the services where they move it like clean water and a safer place.

Life is beautiful but really short. Don't waste your time. Live your life purposefully. Prepare for the day of the reckoning/judgement.

[@RickOshay...]

Yeah... Dream on...

[@Robinicat]

Governments like these take from the poor to give to the rich. Look at Rwanda. In true Rwandan style, Kagame had the slums bulldozed sending people scrambling for somewhere to live. People with small children, handicapped people, old people...all were sent out into the streets. Why? Because there was a Commonwealth meeting in Kigali and Kagame didn't want them seeing the terrible poverty in those slums. What happened to those homeless people? They were arrested for being vagrants. And we all know what happens in Rwandan jails? Murder! The West would be better prepared to help these poor countries but the corruption from on high stops prevents this.

Better here than in the fetid Lagos slums.

This is world wide, and GREED is the reason. Give the people $2K per month retro from Jan. 2020! Teach them to work online from home, so they can earn an income. Decent people want to work, and not have everything going up, when we have nothing.

[@irenedavo3768]

Hello

[@ivosonnenberg6267]

First of all you need to elect a government who adresses the needs of the people not only their own needs, than you must invest in the lives of the people and infrastructure outside the cities and take away the reasons for them to come to the city in the first place. If you not follow that path you end up in a devils circle, in wich you can only manage the slums and will need to improve them, time and time again, wich than only attract more people to them. That will only be a very temporary solution, with the end effect of making the problem bigger and bigger to a point were even managing them, becomes impossible. Its nobel from NGO's to try to tackle the problem and noble from universities to lay a hand on, but it is a problem wich can, at the end of the day, only be solved by a government
