Timby helps teams track complex problems by streamlining the process of collecting, organizing and analyzing data from the field.
Addressing today’s development challenges requires vast amounts of data. However, in many settings, collecting and organizing data from the field can be a real challenge. Databasing, backing-up and sharing information can be difficult, and a lot of crucial information can get lost along the way. Timby helps communities, companies, and civil society connect on-the-ground data to impact at the 10,000 ft level — for everything from reducing corruption to cleaning up supply chains and expanding renewable energy production.
The Timby tools include a mobile application for collecting geo-referenced reports; a moderation dashboard to aggregate, store and analyze reports; and a storytelling tool to generate reports, press releases, blogs, court-ready documents, and more. The app is icon-based and colour-coded for use even among those with limited levels of literacy — yet is backed up by robust encryption and security measures that exceed the industry standard.
Timby was born out of grassroots work with civil society organizations in Liberia and continues to be used for grassroots monitoring of environmental, social and human rights issues and more. The most rapidly expanding arms of Timby, however, have been with: (a) investors and corporate groups working on corporate social responsibility projects in the developing world; (b) development agencies and banks monitoring field projects; (c) international legal and investigative journalism collaborations; and (d) institutions that self-report to better their service delivery.
Timby is being used on projects in 25 countries including Canada, Chile, Egypt, India, Indonesia, Jordan, Kenya, Malaysia, Mozambique, Panama, the Solomon Islands, and South Africa.
