The University of Nairobi and the Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation have launched the Women’s Economic Empowerment Hub. Dubbed the WEE Hub, the project will be a thought leader in producing cutting edge, innovative, rigorous, and accessible research which will contribute to the full realization of women’s economic empowerment in Kenya. This cutting-edge research is expected to impact policy formulation, implementation, and up scaling of what works for women in economic empowerment into full scale programs.
Presiding over the launch on December 16, 2020, the Cabinet Secretary Ministry for Public Service and Gender Affairs, Prof. Margaret Kobia, noted that the Hub will be a critical institution in strengthening the economic empowerment of women of Kenya.
