About this title

Synopsis

This project focused on analysis of gender perspectives in the implementation of the millennium development goals (MDGs) in developing countries. The objective of the study are four fold: to establish extent to which feminization of poverty has been sustained by gender insensitive practices in Kenya; to assess the extent to which millennium development goals (3) principles have been integrated and mainstreamed in Kenya's national development policies and programs; to examine public awareness about millennium development goal 3 and extent of their involvement in the advancement of its principles and;to explain the obtaining gaps, challenges and disharmony in the implementation of the millennium development goal 3 in Kenya. The study is guided by the feminism theory, which aims not only to understand the nature of the inequality but also seeks to promote women rights. The study exposes a number of initiatives by the Kenya government to enhance gender equality.The study confirms the hypotheses that the external origin of MGD 3 and the general lack of commitment among state and non state actors have affected the programmes implementation process in Kenya.
