We create deviancy from the traditional method of NGOs and CBOs being the voice of their communities to equipping the communities to be their VOICE themselves. Through our work, we have supported the Kaduna state government and the Nigerian government to establish the Open Procurement Portal and we have increased the civic space by creating more awareness and more demand for accountability from the citizens to engage the portal and the government. We work around the open data and technologies to co-create ownership. We bring in the government through our policy dialogues and increased their capacity to be able to engage effectively and deliver services base on need assessment and demand from the communities. Our activities pushed both Kaduna state and Nigeria in meeting up with the requirements to join the Open Government Partners (OGP).
