The findings of the Tactical Urbanism for Inclusive Transport report underscore the transformative potential of grassroots initiatives in shaping urban spaces, especially when local governments prioritize inclusivity and citizen empowerment.
In response to common urban challenges in Sub-Saharan Africa, such as slums and inequality, tactical urbanism offers a way to improve urban environments through low-cost, community-led interventions. This study examines literature and best practices from the Global South, as well as a “safety audit” conducted in Thika Town, Kenya, to explore how tactical urbanism can enhance public transport safety, particularly for women and vulnerable groups.
