dc.description.abstractThis case study attempts to address factors that are contributive to girls' drop out of school as a result of abject poverty of slum fife. This is a complex factor and that is why the researcher has to give a long introduction and a long background of the study. This is in view of supporting the argument that, "Poverty hampers education of children in the slums, especially girls. Therefore, this problem of schoolgirls dropout needs to be addressed. This study is wide because it is interested in advocating a holistic approach, so as to curb girls school dropouts. This is by eradicating poverty, which has taken various shapes in the society. One of these shapes, is girls school dropouts, found in Kibera slum. This approach would focus on aspects such as: composition and specific distribution of population, levels of education attained by the Kenyan population, rates and patterns of urbanization, size and utilization of the labour force, housing conditions and availability of social amenities. Then, the holistic approach aims at coming up with concerted advocacy campaign on sensitizing the key influential groups; provincial administration, education planners/institutions, women groups, women educationists, trade unions, politicians, religious organizations, non governmental and governmental organizations, media and every government ministry.en_US
