The perceived scenario
• When programmes came in for renewal from all
corners of the country it was noted that very little
head-way was made in most of the programmes.
The situation before
• It was noted that in most cases the continuation
programme was a “copy paste” of the previous phase
with a little window dressing.
phase wise indicators
• Given this scenario we felt that very few programmes
would reach the desired goal.
• In many cases we were not too sure if the partner had
any idea of which road to take next.
Providing benchmarks
• In order to help partners move along in
various crucial areas, the Secretariat felt it
would be good The
to provide partners with
benchmarks to be achieved at the end of each
phase.
