“A Groundbreaking Collaborative Project Tackling Mis & Disinformation in Kenya.”
About Us
Fumbua is a collective of media and media-related organizations committed to countering mis/dis-information through collaboration, debunking, training, amplification and advocacy. It was launched to tackle electoral mis/dis-information during the Kenyan 2022 General elections.
The next phase of our work against mis/dis-information goes beyond elections and looks into the financial and social impact of mis/dis-information. Our partners work collaboratively to promote responsible and ethical journalism through media literacy activities, ultimately improving the quality of information consumed by the public.
Areas of Focus
These are the pillars of all work done under Fumbua
