SHORT DOC FARDOSA ON SVT 29/11 AND 2/12-2010

Fardosa Ali is thirteen years old and live in the Korogocho slum, in the outskirts of Nairobi, Kenya. She lives alone with his father who is blind in one of the nearly 100 000 houses made of mud, earth and corrugated iron, which is characteristic of the slums here.

Fardosa has just reached the age when many Muslim girls in the area are married off, which is the case of her older sisters. Through the project KENGELE she has gotten the opportunity to continue her education. She wakes up at five o'clock every morning to get on the school bus to take her and some other fellows to the private school in the upper middle class area Buruburu, an hour's bus ride away.
