The Ho Living Dictionary was started by Gregory D. S. Anderson and K. David Harrison in 2003, and documentation work continued in 2005-2008. Anna Pucilowski worked on the dictionary between 2007-2008 and published her graduate dissertation on the Ho language in 2009. The Ho Living Dictionary was first published online in 2010.

In 2023, Ho language activist Ganesh Birua worked on the headwords of the dictionary by changing them into Warang Chiti script, which is used by local Ho people in India.
