The Hub’s findings on the Gendered impact of travel restriction’s government policy response to covid-19 pandemic on the tourism industry in Kenya were incorporated into key tourism policies, following targeted stakeholder engagement and advocacy by the researchers. This is in line with the Hub’s approach of advocacy and policy uptake that seeks to go beyond data collection to utilisation. Consequently, our findings led to the inclusion of gender aspects in the Revised Tourism Policy, Tourism Sector induction Manual and inclusion of Gender-responsive Sustainable Tourism Development into the Tourism Sustainability in Kenya White paper.
