Photography and Filmmaking

The project has enabled young individuals to articulate narratives regarding their daily experiences through the use of cameras, thereby allowing them to convey their perspectives from the slums to a global audience.

Over the years, participants at the Mwelu Foundation have captured notable photographs and videos of the Foundation's initiatives, resulting in a comprehensive archive documenting its contributions to the community.

In 2014, the project published a photo book entitled "Julius & the Mwelu Foundation," which comprises images that illustrate the lives of residents in the Mathare and adjacent slums. In partnership with Africalia, a Belgian organization, members of the Mwelu Foundation have engaged in various local and international exhibitions and have produced several short documentaries.
