Led by the WEE Hub's team focusing on Thematic Area 3: Care Economy and Women's Entrepreneurship, the event served as a platform to disseminate new research findings and foster dialogue on the status of care services in Kenya.

The workshop underscored the essential role of the care economy in enabling women to participate fully in economic activities and improve their livelihoods.
