ABSTRACT
The Performance of Global Environment Facility Projects have not been up to predetermined
standards in various aspects. For this reason, Institutional Monitoring and Evaluation (M&E)
practices are spurred by demand for project effectiveness, efficiency, transparency,
accountability, information frameworks, quality, and availability of M & E technologies and
instruments. Various agencies have established full-fledged M & E departments and legal or
regulatory frameworks for regular M&E execution of projects that are donor funded on the
backdrop of stringent regulations to achieve purposed socio economic development in target
beneficiary communities. The study examined Monitoring and Evaluation routine at United
Nations Environment Program Global Environment Facility Projects in Kenya and its effect on
Project Performance. The broad aim of this study was to ascertain the influence of the practices
of monitoring and evaluation on the performance of UNEP GEF Kenyan chapter projects. The
specific aims of this research were to determine influence of planning process, technical
expertise, stakeholder involvement and Management involvement on performance of UNEP
GEF projects in Kenya. The research enrolled the entire population of UNEP GEF project staffs
to respond to an in depth individual interview questionnaire. The study population had 15 project
managers, 32 support staff, 5 monitoring, and evaluation staffs. The analysis of data was done by
utilising computerized statistical package of social scientists (SPSS) and summarized in tables
for interpretation and inference. M & E practices were analysed at four levels of planning
process, technical expertise, stakeholder involvement and management participation.
Associations between M & E practice and project performance were measured using logistic
regression model, with estimated odds ratios (ORs) at 95% confidence intervals (CIs) with a P
