Abstract

Management of development projects is influenced by the culture of a people in any given area. This study sought to assess cultural management issues facing the sustainability of development projects in Anglican Church of Kenya, Maseno North Diocese, Kenya. It draws on the theoretical perspectives of thinkers like Sen (1992), Spradley (1980), and Huntington (2000). A descriptive study design was adopted where both qualitative and quantitative data was collected through semi structured questionnaires, key informants, and focus group discussion. Simple Random and cluster sampling were used to select 245 participants. Quantitative data was coded and analysed using SPSS while qualitative data was analysed using content analysis. The study findings revealed that values and belief systems and kinship relationships affected the sustainability of development projects of the church. The study recommended the implementation of culturally responsive strategies in projects management to enhance community ownership and long-term impact.
