The study intended to examine the street vending and solid waste management dynamics in Kayole informal settlement in Nairobi and establish the link between these and urban flooding that is characteristically prevalent in Nairobi, including in the neighborhood. It reports on various indicators of neighborhood upgrade and sustainable neighborhood governance that affect or are affected by the prevailing informality in residence, trade and solid waste management regime. In it, participatory neighborhood governance was conceived as an important instrument for achieving sustainable urban governance. Consequently, dynamics in stakeholder participation in sustainable solid waste and flood risk management were also investigated. Recommendations for better management of these concerns were also provided by the respondents who included residents and street vendors to whom structured questionnaires were issued, and Key informants who were interviewed by the enumerators.
