| dc.description.abstract | : Food security projects are created to accomplish the legislative goals of improving food access in low-income communities. They help develop proactive approaches for the welfare of low-income communities by creating their own comprehensive and sustainable food systems. In this regard, numerous food security projects have been initiated in most Kenyan Counties by both state and non-state prayers in Kenya. However, sustainability of food projects has been a challenge in the sense that some projects remain partially operational after the withdrawal of the main donor while others become defunct. This study therefore seeks to investigate the influence of stakeholder engagement on the sustainability food security projects in arid lands, Kenya. The study is anchored on stakeholder theory. Positivist philosophy is deemed appropriate for this study. Cross-sectional descriptive survey will be used. The study target 413 food security projects implemented by UN Agencies within 8 Counties in Arid Lands in Kenya with a sample of 203 food security projects. Stratified sampling will be used and primary data will be collected using self-administered questionnaire.Descriptive statistics such as mean and standard deviation will be computed to explain the characteristics of the distribution. Correlation analysis and standard multiple regression models will assist to assess the degree of relationship between the study variables. This study will be of significant to ministry of agriculture in enacting policies for sustainable food security; project donors and sponsors in accessing critical information on practices for sustainable of future food projects; relevant UN agencies would obtain information which will help to shape the future of their projects by understanding key issues to be addressed to promote their unsustainability; and finally the study is expected to immensely contribute to literature for use by future researchers and form a base for discussion in the area of project sustainability. | |
