Sometimes it is about the tech: choosing tools in South African and Kenyan transparency and accountability initiatives

Abstract

This report, produced under the Making All Voices Count programme, investigates the processes through which organisations in South Africa and Kenya choose and implement digital technology tools to use in transparency and accountability initiatives, and how this influences the effectiveness of their work. The research provides lessons for other organisations and practitioners working in technology for transparency and accountability initiatives (T4TAI), to help them select appropriate digital tools for their work.
