Briefs and Policy Reviews

Overview

With the elections coming up in 2022, such application requires time to collect data; preferably six months before and three months after the election process. Application of big data would be an opportunity for development partners to contribute to the spirit of sharing and offer development support that remains somewhat non-involved. The use of new technology including social media can provide data to be coded and validated to estimate the trends in electoral violence during elections in different counties in Kenya.
