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 thehypotheses 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.
