Book Description
Provides a collection of essays that draw attention to urban environments, such as high unemployment, inadequate housing, poor services, and often extreme poverty, in which children and youth have to live and survive. Looks at poor to middle-class communities in African cities (in Burkina Faso, Cameroon, Congo, Kenya, Nigeria, South Africa, Uganda, Zimbabwe), and illustrates how young people find ways not only of surviving, but also of enjoying themselves.
