In Kenya's rapidly digitizing landscape, human rights defenders face unprecedented surveillance threats while citizens struggle to participate in governance. The Surveillance and Accountability Project bridges this gap with cutting-edge research and inclusive technology that makes democracy secure and accessible.
We combine cutting-edge surveillance research with inclusive digital democracy platforms — protecting defenders and empowering citizens.
We investigate and expose digital surveillance threats targeting Kenya's human rights community, while equipping defenders with tools to stay safe.
We build surveillance-safe civic engagement platforms that empower all Kenyans to meaningfully participate in democratic processes.
