Haki Data Lab

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

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

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

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