Our Purpose

Why This Project Exists

The dashboard was created to address data gaps on women-led MSME financing and to track progress toward Kenya's KES 150 billion MSME financing commitment. By leveraging anonymized CRB data, the platform supports inclusive product development and policy alignment.

This work is anchored in the Generating WMSME Market Insights workshop, bringing together stakeholders to strengthen gender-disaggregated reporting and evidence-based action.
