Hatari was created so that Nairobi residents can report incidents of crime and corruption in their own voices. Hatari is inspired by the belief that citizens have a right to information and a right to be aware of events in their surroundings. The website is currently administered by a group of Nairobi based volunteers and is powered by Ushahidi.
