Marginal urban neighbourhoods in Africa are enclaves of unemployment and poverty for men and women. In Nairobi, many such women are in small-scale businesses where corrupt officials, patriarchal oppression, and poverty inter alia curtail social space. This outlook is changing; women are more assertive in public. This paper explores the gains women have made in extending social space through membership in rotational savings clubs. How has this come about? What are the drivers? An abstraction of two women cases from a wider ethnographic study reveals clubs enabling women expand businesses; support household decisions and budgets, community, and church activities; and collectively confront state and city county officials. Social organisation enables the marginalised realise civic agency and weave freedom and self-determination into economic advancement. Civil societies’ democratisation efforts should latch on such informal organisations downstream to transform society from below. Additionally, a more comprehensive delimitation of the civil society sector capturing formal and non-formal organisations in the margins would be more fruitful.
