In 2012, The Ford Foundation recognized Twaweza Communications as a Champion of Democracy due to the institution’s work in the advancement of democracy and equality in Kenya. Following the award, Twaweza Communications embarked on a project to develop an online English-Kiswahili Dictionary of Legal terms in a bid to increase access to justice in Kenya through language. We believe that the project will increase access to justice and benefit Kenya’s judicial and governance process by improving communication between judicial officers and litigants. It is also a contribution to Kiswahili legal lexicon as well as the development and presence of African languages on the internet.
