2. MODULE BRIEF DESCRIPTION:
It is estimated that around 64% of development projects fail to achieve their intended objectives according to a 2012 study done by the Mckinsey group and Devex. The reasons for high failure rate said to be; structural/contextual issues, 2) institutional/sustainability problems and 3) managerial/organization problems -Project management institute. Ineffective management of projsct cycle is central to the problem. Increasing a critical mass of professionals with solid knowledge of the management best practices can mitigate the problem. Strengthening the capacity of those at heart of projacts can go a long way in ensuring that projects implemented in Rwanda achieve greater impact. The government of Rwanda’s results oriented approach to development planning and implementation requires strong management approach to not only generate evidence about what works and what does not work but also generate lessons for decision makers.
