Project Preparatory Activities

The initial stages of the project cycle are pivotal for the development and design of useful programs and investment projects. Careful identification of objectives, target beneficiaries, stakeholders, and risk elements are necessary when designing program and projects. Equally important is the early and clear identification of measurable outputs.

To make these ends meet application of Logical Framework analysis (LFA) enables a quick and comparatively simple way or organizing concepts, strategies, and activities. LFA is further useful as a monitoring tool for later program and project adjustment during evaluation procedures.
