ABOUT MZALENDO Mzalendo is a non-partisan entity that keeps an eye on Kenyan Parliament with a mission to facilitate public participation in Parliamentary processes through Information Sharing, Research and Networking. Our vision is to see Informed, Empowered and Engaged citizens transforming society by holding their leaders to account. To build public trust and encourage their continued participation in Parliamentary business, Mzalendo Trust since 2013 tracks and opens up MPs work outputs as a means to promote transparency and accountability. Through our outputs – live tweets chats, availing bills to the public, giving annual report cards on MPs work and conducting research on various Parliamentary matters e.g. representation of women MPs and youth, Mzalendo Trust has become an indispensable part of the Kenyan civil society and political ecosystem. Presently, Mzalendo Trust is one of the CSO representatives on the National Steering Committee of the Open Government Partnership (OGP) third action plan for the years 2018-2020. 4v CLAIMING THE SPACE:
