Introduction to Part 2

 

Part 2 contains a description of Project Cycle Management (PCM), whose phases provide a time-line and project process framework in which to apply the strategic approach and checklists of key issues and potential responses. These are grouped according to both the PCM phases and the Focus Areas identified in Part 1.

Possible reponses to Assessement of Steps 1 to 4

As each country is unique, any categorisation cannot be prescriptive. However, as a guide, the responses to steps 1 to 4 can help identifying the priorities for national and/or external development support. The following category examples set out a general basis for selecting different sector programme responses based on the impression gained from the issues raised in steps 1 to 4. Three categories can be determined:

Category A:

Checklist for the Step 4: Identifying priority Focus Areas

It is important to identify which Focus Area(s) is/are most in need of support. This priority setting should fit within an overall sector programme based on responses to the earlier key issues.

Checklist for Step 3: Compatibility and complementarity

Some countries may be fully aware of water resources issues and make appropriate plans whilst others are unaware or take a shorter-term view of needs and responses

Checklist for Step 2: Capacity to take on and manage programme

A water resources sector programme can only be effectively implemented if the sector governance is adequate and if there is the required capacity existing within the sector, especially for the government, in order to handle the institutional, technical and financial aspects.

Checklist for Step 1: Assessing needs

Water resources development and management must be assessed with regard to alignment with the national sector framework of the country.
