The Sengwer people will have hi-tech help fighting forced evictions in their forested homeland - an app that will share a $1 million (Sh100 million) prize announced on Monday by a U.S. philanthropic organisation.
Dubbed “This Is My Backyard” (TIMBY), the app was created in Kenya and is being customised with the Sengwer in mind, although it is being used in 25 more countries and works in 11 languages, the developers said.
