Twaweza East Africa: for general operating support

Twaweza, which means “we can make it happen” in Swahili, works with citizens to exercise agency and with governments to be more open and responsive in Tanzania, Kenya, and Uganda. Through policy research and engagement in multilateral initiatives like the Open Government Partnership, Twaweza convenes citizens and policymakers to co-create solutions to specific issues such as violence against women, student absenteeism, and access to drinking water. Twaweza works to deepen its media partnerships, produce gender-disaggregated data to reveal the differential impacts of policies between men and women, and facilitate policy dialogue between citizens and public officials about civil rights.
