About us
The Coast Regional Budget Hub is a platform for Public Finance Management (PFM) practitioners that brings together regional voices for collective efforts and synergy to enhance public budgets and services across the Coast Region of Kenya.
The Coast Regional Budget Hub operates in the six Coastal counties: Mombasa, Kwale, Kilifi, Lamu, Taita-Taveta, and Tana River Counties. The Hub comprises budget coordinators, facilitators, and champions from various organizations/ institutions, informal groups, academia, and individuals across the Coast.
We engage with communities and Budget Champions through workshops, training sessions, and peer learning, dubbed “Budget Garages or Karakana Za Bajeti”, to enhance their understanding and involvement in the Budget Processes
Our advocacy efforts are grounded in rigorous research and budget analysis to ensure that our engagements with the government are backed up by solid and credible evidence
The Coast Regional Budget Hub employs diverse advocacy approaches, including community advocacy led by budget champions, policy advocacy through memoranda and legislative proposals
We partner with organizations from which the facilitators/champions come, such as media practitioners, private sectors, government entities, and Bajeti Hub, which provides technical and financial support to the Hub
