CCGD also works with selected county and national government ministries, departments and agencies to support the implementation of core policies and laws that contribute significantly towards reducing the gender gap. Recognizing that public accountability to the achievement of gender equality is critical to closing the gender gap, CCGD engages in strategic partnerships and collaboration with the National Gender and Equality Commission (NGEC) to contribute towards evidence-based advocacy that promotes collection and analysis of sex-disaggregated data and utilization of findings to inform advocacy.

Further, CCGD supports coalition-building among CSOs on national and regional platforms that collectively push advocacy agenda among others rights, equality, participation and protection of civic space. In this regard, CCGD currently hosts the Kenya Gender Budget Network (KGBN), East African Civil Society Organizations Forum (EACSOF) and Innovations for Change (14C), Africa Hub.
