# Ushahidi

|
||
## Company blurb
|
||
|
||
Ushahidi is a non-profit technology company that builds open source platforms to help citizens,
|
||
journalists, organizations, governments, and others gather, manage, analyze, and visualize
|
||
crowdsourced data. Our tools have been used by tens of thousands of individuals and
|
||
organizations fighting for social causes in over 159 countries — whether for monitoring
|
||
corruption in Zimbabwe, gathering real-time data on local poverty issues, or giving
|
||
people a voice in the Syrian crisis.
|
||
|
||
Ushahidi started as an ad-hoc group of Kenyan bloggers hammering out code in a couple
|
||
of days from various locations, trying to figure out a way to gather more and better
|
||
information about the 2008 post-election violence in Kenya.
