| dc.description.abstract | The study explored the donor funded projects in Kibera. The donor funded projects aim to promote development by strengthening organizations at the community level. The research questions addressed the characteristics of development projects. The connection between development and four key concepts suggested by the literature; community empowerment, accountability, technology and monitoring and evaluation and the impact of the projects on poverty. In the study the data was collected and triangulated by means of structured interviews, key informant interview and document reviews. From the 150 questionnaires distributed in the 8 dominant villages a total of 119 were collected and used in the analysis.
The study concludes that there is need for more involvement of the donor recipients in project planning and implementation in order for the projects to meet their objective of promoting development. | en |
