SN 03 EP 14 with Sarah Lebu, an Urban planner.

As a trained urban planner, there are several ways you can put your degree into use: @wowmomkenya ’s Peninah is passionate about transportation and creating child friendly spaces, @watetu_gachoki is making development and strategic plans in the government while @sa_mburu and Kelvin Ritho are successfully running their private practices touching on different urban issues.

Today, I present Sarah (@making.the.dr) who is passionate about obtaining equity in terms of public health and services for the urban poor. As she rightfully says, we cannot progress as a country if we are only developing one side of the population. 

Tune in to learn more about her journey from Uganda to Kenya to the US, in the pursuit of her passion.

Happy Listening.

SN 03 EP 10 with Planner Joan Watetu, a Physical Planner with the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning and also the Principal Consultant at Eliye Consults.

________

Once again, we bring to you a young planner but this time a female, who works in the government and also finds time to run her own Consultancy. That's right, it's not illegal to run your own firm while working in formal employment...in fact it's recommended when you are still building up your clientele.

As a Planner with the Ministry of Lands and Physical Planning, Watetu takes us through her self employment journey right from campus all the way to seeking full time employment. Adding on to what our planning colleagues from private Consultancies share, Joan gives a glimpse into life as a government employee. We even share the salary details...
