Ushahidi Meeting: KANCO

KANCO The first group to present their work is KANCO, the Kenya AIDS NGOs Consortium, presented by Jamie Lundine. It's a project where 3 of us, Ushahidi, AIDSPortal and KANCO are working together to track spending and effectiveness of projects at the community level. The mapping project portion of this is to develop local capacity for data collection and analysis. It's also there to enable individuals to send in reports from their local communities about the services they are receiving.

" The KANCO Map of AIDS and TB Service Organizations is an online directory of KANCO member organizations. Member organizations are non-governmental organizations (NGOs, both local and international), community based organizations (CBOs), faith-based organizations (FBOs), private sector, and academic/research institutions responding to or that have an interest in HIV & AIDS and TB in Kenya. These organizations share KANCO’s vision of a Kenyan society free of HIV & AIDS and TB. "

Funding for this project was provided by a grant from Google.org. The work on the project has been a close partnership between the Ushahidi team in Nairobi, along with the KANCO tech team.
