Matatus are the common mode of Transport in Kenya. Drivers and conductors face harsh and exploitative working conditions. We share their experiences using storytelling through videos that are played in Matatus. #NumbersInAction @Equal_Insights @data4change @AdoyoAnthony

After days of networking and learning at the Global Data Festival, together with our partners @data4change, we invited our Global partners for a 'Matatu' experience and dinner where they got to learn more about the 'Margins To Metrics' project.

At the Global Data Festival 2026, Haki Data Lab joined forces with @Data4Change on the discussion, "Who Gets to Count? When Informal Workers Lead Citizen Data in Nairobi", we dived deep into the intersection of data,inclusion, and community action. @AdoyoAnthony @lloydsregister

Yesterday, we joined the Dhobi Women’s Network during their labour laws training facilitated by @YouthAliveKenya and the Ministry of Labour. @data4change @lloydsregister @MathareSJustice

youtube.com/watch?v=EXcrg7WO… The 'Margins To Metrics' project by the Haki Data Lab brought together informal workers to document their lived experiences and turn them into meaningful data.Above is the video of the community launch event. @Data4Change @lloydsregister @MathareSJustice

Research must become a shared process in which those typically positioned as objects are recognised as active producers of knowledge and theorists of their own experiences. @cricketwrites @MathareSJustice @DecogreenNet @UpcyclersHub @data4change @ArctiveCitizens

Informal doesn't mean invisible.They build our cities, feed our families, and clean our streets. It's time we celebrate their labor with the dignity it deserves. #MarginsToMetrics #Rights4EveryWorker #NumbersInAction @lloydsregister @data4change @AmnestyKenya @YouthAliveKenya

No paycheck, no contract,no security—yet they show up every day.That's not precariousness to pity; that's resilience to applaud and protect. #Rights4EveryWorker #NumbersInAction @data4change @lloydsregister @ArctiveCitizens @UpcyclersHub @KituoSheria @UhaiWetu @MathareSJustice

When we celebrate informal workers, we stop asking 'Why are they outside the system?' and start asking 'Why is the system failing to include them ? #NumbersInAction #Rights4EveryWorker @data4change @lloydsregister @MathareSJustice @cricketwrites

Today, we mark Labour Day by recognising the dignity, resilience, and contribution of all workers who keep our communities and economies running. At Youth Alive! Kenya, we celebrate our dedicated staff whose passion and commitment continue to drive impact across communities. Your work, energy, and belief in change are what make our mission possible. We also honour domestic workers whose labour often goes unseen yet remains essential in sustaining households, enabling productivity, and strengthening care systems. Their rights, safety, and fair working conditions must remain a priority. As we celebrate this day, we reaffirm our commitment to advocating for decent work, fair pay, and social protection for all, especially those in the care economy. Happy Labour Day.

Earlier today, Kituo appeared before the @Senate_KE Labour Committee to represent KEMRI retirees in their long fight for justice over unpaid pensions under the KEMRI Staff Pension Scheme (Defined Benefit). #LegalEmpowerment #AccessToJustice

Marking the Day of Workers at the Dhobi Women Network Park at the Moi Air Airbase.On this day,we recognise and honour the work of informal workers all over the world. When workers are organised,they move from Margins to being counted @MathareSJustice @data4change @lloydsregister

Kituo participated in the launch of “Margin to Metrics” by @HakiDataLab . The research validates the dignity of Nairobi’s informal workers who keep the city running yet remain largely unrecognized and unprotected. Data is a critical step toward legal empowerment.

Today, we launch a report of the 'Margins To Metrics' project funded by @lloydsregister and implemented in collaboration with @data4change. #Rights4EveryWorker @UhaiWetu @MathareSJustice @cricketwrites

Data creates ripple effects and when many data points come together, those ripples can lead to powerful, transformative change. #Rights4EveryWorker #NumbersInAction
