An effective monitoring and evaluation process is fundamental if the goals of a project are to be achieved. Through setting up proper monitoring and evaluation process, funding, stakeholders‟ participation, proper leadership and good baseline studies, efficient project implementation can be achieved thus enhancing the performance of projects. This study sought to analyze influence of monitoring and evaluation process on implementation of WASH projects: A case of UNICEF Kenya WASH program, Kajiado County. The study was guided by the stakeholder theory and the theory of change. The research was guided by the following objectives; to establish the influence of funding M&E process on implementation of WASH projects, to determine the influence of stakeholder participation in M&E on implementation of WASH projects and to assess the influence of project leadership in M&E on implementation of WASH projects. The study adopted a descriptive survey research design in solving the research problem. The study targeted employees of UNICEF Kenya working under the WASH program and in human resources, finance and administration departments and program beneficiaries. A sample was selected procedurally. An interview guide was also used to interview key informant persons in the organization. Collected data was edited, sorted, cleaned and coded for data analysis using SPSS statistical package. The findings were analyzed using means, standard deviation, percentages and frequencies then presented using tables. The level of association between the independent and dependent variables was assessed by estimating a linear regression analysis and the coefficient of determination (R2).The findings helped indicate whether UNICEF allocated funds to M&E activities and has a separate allocation for M&E and whether the funds were sufficient and the M&E unit is independent there were 60 observations which were used in the study. Composite Mean and Standard Deviation 2.67 and .547 respectively for funds for M&E .For stakeholders‟ participation this was 3.910 and 1.0933 and for leadership on implementation was 3.384 and 1.1204. The findings show a strong positive correlation between M&E leadership and implementation of projects with a correlation coefficient of 0.736. This implies that if organizations use effective leadership, the implementation efficiency level of projects will increase. The findings also show a positive correlation between funding of M&E process and implementation of projects with a correlation of 0.489. The study shows a strong positive correlation between stakeholders‟ participation and implementation of with correlation of 0.565. This implies that better enforcement of stakeholders‟ participation within UNICEF WASH project in Kajiado in Kenya can significantly improve the implementation of projects.

This is because aspects of reality that are named become ‘real’; they can be talked about and easily outlined. Language as a form of communication also enables us to share our tho ughts, feelings and experi ences, especi ally with each other. Language therefore shapes ideas a nd the thought processes. In education and in schools, language is bound to infl uence the way pupils and students learn. This is because they are taught several la nguages in school. In addi tion, they learn whatever else through a language. This draws attention to the way language creates the reality of th e world for the child especially in the school. This paper exam ines the interlocking relations between educ ation, language and gender with a view to: determine in what ways language perpetuates sex a nd gender stereotypes. The paper argues that the way language devalues gi rls and women through sexism in language can be redeemed, that is engendering th e language.
