Nairobi City County opened 10 Parkour Parks across informal settlements on August 14, 2025—featuring safe vaults, rails, and foam pits, built with recycled materials and community input. Designed by youth collectives, they host daily training and weekend jams. This isn’t vandalism—it’s urban design by the people, said coach Zawadi Mwaura. Crime dropped 31% in nearby zones (per NPS). Safaricom sponsors coaching stipends. The parks include solar lighting and rainwater harvesting. Plans for 30 more by 2026 are confirmed.
