Abstract: Despite the enormous advancements in development and the wealth of knowledge on gender mainstreaming, assessments and evaluations reveal a significant disparity in implementation, maybe because of difficulties with implementation. The study determined policy framework implementation procedures towards gender mainstreaming in selected Universities in Kenya. The study was guided by the liberal feminist theory by (Wollstonecraft, 1794). The study employed descriptive survey design on a sample of 371 respondents from 4 out of the 37 targeted public universities in Kenya. Multi-stage sampling of stratified, simple random and purposive sampling will be used to sample Vice Chancellors, Deputy Vice Chancellors, Academics, Planning and Finance, Head of Procurement, Planning, Registrar Academics, Registrar Finance, Registrar Student Affairs, Registrar Sports and Games, Head of Departments, Deans of Students, Gender Department Chairpersons, and University Counselors. Data for this study was collected through Key Informant Interviews, Observation checklist and document analysis. The study used ‘split-halves’ and ‘internal consistency’ methods to measure reliability. The findings are expected to be of value in acting as a guide for policy makers on key gender mainstreaming strategies among other benefits.
