Abstract
Shabani Kilama grew up in the remote village of Kibiti, about 88 miles from Tanzania’s commercial capital of Dar es Salaam. He watched his mother struggle to feed 13 children, and it was common for the family to skip some daily meals during bad years. Shabani vowed to help his mother live a better life when he grew to adulthood. Immediately after completing high school in 2014, Shabani decided to be an entrepreneur and established a small business selling used clothes and mobile phone calling cards in the Jangwani neighbourhood of Dar es Salaam-an area in the Msimbazi River valley that experiences frequent flash flooding.
