About us

WHO WE ARE

Mtoto News is a digital and media platform whose mission is to make children visible. We do this through:

Curating, creating, and circulating content on children and by children in different ways, including audio, video, written materials and infographics.
Child participation, where we believe that children should be seen as players and not spectators, hence we capacitate children, create platforms, and allow them to participate. We are working to create child-led initiatives where children take lead in matters that affect them.
Research and Data, research has a way of making children visible especially in child-led research. Mtoto News works to empower children to inform policy, programs, and practice through the use of children’s voices, child-led and child-informed research.

OUR SERVICE

The code (DNA) of our work is Child participation. Where we place children at the heart of decision-making in Africa. We are always innovating ways to ensure children are a part of all spheres.
