dc.description.abstract | This study sought to investigate the factors affecting the performance of water and sanitation
projects in Garissa Municipality. The specific objectives were to find out the effect of project
planning, expectations of stakeholders, monitoring and evaluation and government policies on
the performance of water and sanitation projects in Garissa Municipality. The researcher used
descriptive research approach which described the factors and variables of this project. A census
approach was used to cover the four wards of Garissa Municipality and covered all the four
water and sanitation projects currently in progress. Fifty respondents were chosen where 10 of
the local respondents were selected by purposive method and 40 respondents from the other
categories were picked by simple random sampling method. Questionnaires were administered to
these groups of respondents to represent the entire population. Primary data was collected by the
use of self administered questionnaires and researcher administered for the groups that are
illiterate especially the members of the local community who may have problems reading and
interpreting the questions as expected by the researcher. The collected data was analysed using
descriptive statistics and factor analysis for quantitative data, correlation analysis was also
carried out on the quantitative data. The researcher used the statistical package for social
sciences (SPSS) to process and analyse data. The research results were presented in percentages
and tables. The major finding of this study is that planning a project before undertaking it is very
important as it determines the entire course of the project. Further, the involvement of
stakeholders ensures that the project is implemented in such a way that it satisfies the expectation
of the stakeholders. The study therefore recommends that thorough planning of projects should
be performed before hand in order to ensure that the project runs without a hitch ones it is
initiated. Further, implementation of projects should not only involve the implementers, but the
immediate stakeholders as well. | en |
