The National Budget and Policy Statement is continuously analyzed to identify gaps in the sectors directly related to women and care work including health, water, education, social and food security (Article 43 of the Kenya Constitution 2010). The analysis and evidence generated by the WEE Hub is then used to make proposals for budgetary allocations for these sectors.  Using childcare facilities established in Busia and Kajiado, and monitoring its impact on women entreprenuers in cross border trade, the WEE Hub will continue to gather evidence on the impact of childcare on women’s participation in entrepreneurship and employment. The same is to be used for upscaling and replicating family friendly childcare facilities that contribute to changing gender norms across the counties. In addition, the WEE hub will review policies, regulations and implementation framework adopted by East Africa Community and the African region to evaluate the effect of Simplified Trade Regime (STR) on small scale women’s businesses.
