Abstract:
All over the world, Kenya included, there have been long standing attempts to eradicate all forms of violence against females. However such effort proved to be counterproductive.. The purpose of the study was to identify indicators of Gender Based Violence and factors reinforcing Gender Based Violence against females in Narok County, Kenya. Narok County was selected purposively because the county has been on the limelight on GBV and womens literacy is low. The study was guided by cultural lag theory by William Ogburn. Questionnaires, interview schedule and focus group discussions were used to collect data. Quantitative data was analyzed through descriptive statistics such as frequency percentages and correlation statistics.
