PROJECT PROPOSALS
Project proposals are documents designed to present a plan of action, outline the reasons why the action is necessary, and convince the reader to agree with and approve the implementation of the actions recommended in the body of the document. . A good project proposal should have a Title Page, a Table of Contents, an Executive Summary, an Introduction, Project Goals and Objectives, Team Organizational Structure, Expected Deliverables, a Summary and Closing section. The Project Proposal Application has five sections -Background and justification of the project, Objectives of the project, Expected results of the project, Project implementation and management and Project budget. The project proposal should justify the following issues-The problem or critical issue which the proposal seeks to resolve, How the proposal relates to other relevant national development strategies and policies, Whether there are other programs and activities which will complement the proposal, How the need for the project was determined, How intended beneficiaries were involved in project identification and planning, What kind of assistance the concerned Governmental offices will provide, What kind of resources the Implementing Agency and other non-governmental organizations will provide. Project proposals are usually written, to request funding for projects and this may vary in dimension depending on the type, size, nature, category and other factors of the project which may be economic, cultural, environmental, social, political, legal, educational, human etc. Details on a comprehensive project proposal can be found in the book titled: " Fundamentals of Project Sustainability: Strategies, Processes and Plans".
