Twajibike strongly believes in the inherent capability of the community to recognize their needs, prioritize them, and appropriately voice them while seeking their own solutions to those needs.
Theory of Change
Twajibike believes that realistic transformation is possible when communities best understand economic, social and political challenges they face and develop interest and capacity to prioritize and influence their own development agenda. Based on this belief, Twajibike invests in community centered capacity building, information dissemination, civic engagement, grassroots organizing and facilitating voice relationships between community, policy actors and other important stakeholders for a cohesive community promoting and enjoying sustainable development.

Our Strategic Approach
Leverage digital tools for local civic engagement
Robust penetration and viral nature of the digital tools, digital spaces and expressions has become a strategic environment for our work. Twajibike will intensively leverage on digital tools and technologies to stimulate greater civic engagement, transparency and accountability by community and duty bearers. Twajibike will strongly integrate innovative digital alternatives and expressions such as technology tools and art in its work at the community levels.
Local organizing and Community focused capacity building
Twajibike believes that realistic transformation is possible when communities best understand their situation, develop interest and broker their own solution. To this end, Twajibike will invest heavily on building community consciousness for them to be angry enough on the basis of truth and reality so that they can take appropriate action to influence development and change they deserve.
Research and fact-checking
As an approach to its work, Twajibike will strive to use research to generate new information and clarify existing information for evidence-based engagement. Moreover, in the age of fake news and propaganda that are commonly used to inhibit true civic engagement and demand for accountability, Twajibike will strive to be a source of reliable data, information and analysis for correct facts at the local level.
Our Mission
