Abstract

Routine programme for monitoring and evaluation involves data gathering, analysis and reporting to ensure progress and ultimately achievement of project goals. This study determined the influence of routine programme for monitoring and evaluation on sub-national water services in Nyamira South Sub County, Kenya. A mixed method, cross-sectional and correlational design was used. Study findings were generated using quantitative interviews from a total of 480 household heads; and staff from the local water services company. Qualitative information was generated from discussions with 40 village elders. The study established that provision of water services in the study area was not sustainable, with only about 23 percent of households accessing water services. The study findings also revealed poor monitoring of the water services. However, the findings demonstrated a linear, positive, and significant association between routine programme for monitoring and evaluation and sustainability of water services. The Pearson correlation coefficient was 0.724 and p-values were 0.000 for both correlation and regression analyses. The findings support the strengthening of routine programme for monitoring and evaluation as a way of reinforcing the long-term management of water resources at sub-national level.
