2.0 INTRODUCTION.
This project is the outcome of the joint effort done during the participatory assessment
by the kwamtoro community, UMAKWA CBO (the host organization), other stake
holders and the CED student. The participatory assessment included Community
assessment, Economic assessment, Environmental assessment and the Health assessment.
This paper will provide meaning of basic concepts together with the analytical
description of the project implementation plan, project monitoring & evaluation and
project sustainability plan in a detailed manner.
The project is going to take place in the three Wards of Kwamtoro, Lalta and Ovada in
the Kwamtoro Division within Kondoa District in Dodoma Region.
The total villages to be covered are 17 with the coverage area of 950 square kilometer,
while the total population estimated to be 38,528 at a projected rate of 2.9% as per 2002
National population census.
The project has two components, where by the first component is to promote
income generating activities and microenterprises while the second component will
be promotion of savings and credit initiatives through formation of community
owned saving and credit cooperative society (SACCOS).
This initiative will solve a number of problems identified during participatory
assessment such as ; poor savings and investment, low money circulation in the local
economy, low income among community members caused by lack/ inadequate
capital, lack of entrepreneurship skills, lack of financial intermediaries and
unemployment.

2.1 DEFINITIONS.
Project implementation plan is a systematic list of activities planed in order to
accomplish the project objectives, while activities are series of specific steps or tasks
carried out in order to achieve an objective. They require resources, have a sequence and
have some one responsible for carrying them out. In other words, activities are actions in
the context of programming which are both necessary and sufficient, and through which
inputs (financial, human, technical and material resources) are mobilized to produce
specific outputs or contribute to the outcome. Activities may also be referred to as
“Development interventions”
The components of an implementation plan are project objectives, activities, person
responsible, time frame (starting and ending points) and necessary resources. Project
implementation plan is the tool for planning, monitoring/supervision, allocation of
resources and evaluation.
Participatory project monitoring and evaluation plan is the systematic series/steps of
monitoring and evaluation activities planed in a participatory manner (involves all project
stake holders). A participatory project monitoring is the continuous function that aims
primarily to provide managers and main stake holders with regular feedback and early
indications of progress or lack thereof in the achievement of intended results. Monitoring
tracks the actual performance or situation against what was planed or expected according
to pre-determined standards. It involves collecting and analyzing data on implementation
processes, strategies & results and recommendation corrective measures. All these are
done in participatory way (involving all project stake holders). Participatory evaluation
is the collective examination and assessment of the programme/project by the stake
4
holders and beneficiaries. Participatory evaluation are reflective, action oriented, and
seek to build capacity. Participatory evaluations are primarily oriented to the
information needs of the stake holders rather than the donor who act as facilitator.
Project sustainability plan is the systematic outlines which explain the continuity or the
capacity of the project to continue functioning supported by its own resources (human,
material and financial) even when external source of funding have ended. Or it explains
the durability of positive programme/project result after the termination of the technical
cooperation channeled through that programme or project.
Static sustainability- the continuous flow of the same benefits set in motion by the target
by the completed programme or project, to the same target groups and/or other groups.
For an out come, it reflect whether the positive changes in development situation will
endure. The list of inputs that lead to sustainability of the project includes;
community participation in the project planning process, community recognition of
real needs, varied funding sources, technically, competent staff, budget within reach
of community, progressive growth of project, properly phased activities, politically
feasible, appropriate collaboration with other agencies, support of community
leaders, use of appropriate technology in the intervention, revolving funding.
2.2 PARTICIPATORY ASSESSMENT AND ITS FINDINGS.
The participatory assessment conducted jointly by the Kwamtoro community, the
host organization (UMAKWA CBO), other stake holders and the CED student. The
assessment included community assessment, economic assessment, health
assessment and Environ mental assessment. The methodologies used during the
5
participatory assessment included, interview method through questionnaires. Other
methods used were focus group discussion, documentary review and observation
methods.
The findings/problems observed/identified during participatory assessment
includes; inadequate capital, low per capital income (100,000/= Tshs), far walking
distance to access basic needs (water, markets, shops, dispensary, rural health
clinics, schools and milling machines) which is 2 to 10 kms. Poor housing i.e. muddy
grass roofed houses, high labor outflows i.e. youths are moving to towns for job
search as job house girls/boys and barmaids, very few existing business, no reliable
markets, lack of entrepreneurship skills Lack of financial institution in the
community until 85 km in Kondoa/Singida or 165 kms in Dodoma, low money
circulation, poor infrastructures low savings, about 25% of disguised
unemployment, small size of informal sector benefiting less than 25% of the
population. Deforestation caused by uncontrolled livestock grazing, fire wood and
charcoal burning, wild fire outbreak caused by honey collectors and hunters.
2.3 PROBLEM STATEMENT AND PROJECT DESCRIPTION.
After going through the problems/findings identified during the participatory assessment,
the community, stake holders, the host organization (UMAKWA CBO), and the CED
student, agreed to prioritize the problem basing on beneficiaries priority, and also basing
on student aspiration, Education background and experience, we opted to focus on
developing local capacity to sustain community economic development. The
concentration will be to tackle the problem of income poverty by reducing the
6
problem where by the identified causes are; unreliable markets, insufficient existing
businesses/income generating activities or microenterprises, lack of
entrepreneurship skills, lack of financial intermediaries, inadequate capital and low
per capita income. The income poverty in the community resulted(effects) to poor
housing(muddy grass roofed houses), inability to fulfill basic needs like education,
food, medical care and treatment and other social obligations, poor/low savings, low
money circulation, small size of informal sector, disguised unemployment,
deforestation and environmental degradation.
The project therefore, will focus on mobilizing and creating community awareness on
income generating activities, savings and credit initiative, where by the existing income
generating activities will be strengthened and mobilized to form a strong community
based/owned savings and credit cooperative society. Under the project, the existing
business groups (small and microenterprises) will be empowered through business
trainings to equip them with entrepreneurial skills. Other new interested community
members will be encouraged to start microenterprises and be trained in microenterprise
skills.
In addition, the empowered economic/business groups together with other community
members will be sensitized and mobilized to join and form a strong community owned
saving and credit cooperative society. By so doing members will eventually save and
borrow money for their small and micro businesses.
The target community/beneficiaries are expected to participate in the project
implementation by attending fully in the workshop and entrepreneurship trainings and
sensitization meetings by also covering the transport cost to the training venues/centre.
7
Moreover, the potential members are expected to contribute through entrance fee, buying
shares, saving and depositing their little earning voluntarily to the SACCOS. The interim
committee selected by the community will offer service on voluntary basis.
The initiative will not only increase savings, investments and money circulation in the
economy but also raise income level, employment and business ownership among
community members. There fore, the project's problem statement is “promotion of
income generating activities, savings and credit initiatives at Kwamtoro, Lalta and
Ovada wards.”
Target community.
The project targeted to serve the total population of 33,010, where by 9,293 is adult
female, 8,372 are adult males, 5,917 are boys and 9,438 are girls. The coverage area will
be under the three Wards of Kwamtoro, Lalta, and Ovada in Kwamtoro Division, which
encompasses of a total of 17 Villages namely; Ndoroboni, Kwamtoro, Msera, Ilasee,
Magambua, Handa, Lahoda, Manantu, Wairo, Kisande, Dinae, Ovada, Mengu,

5.0 PROJECT SUSTAINABILITY PLAN.
5.1 SUSTAINABILITY.
The promotion of income generating activity, savings and credit project is a sustainable
project in the sense that it is a community based and owned from the planning stage to
evaluation stage. The community members who are the primary beneficiaries involved on
the identification and selection of the project.
The SACCOS which will be owned by the members from the community will depend on
the interest rate earned from the loan disbursed to its members. Other income will be
from penalties, grants and loan from other financial institutions. The SACCOS as one the
financial institution can mobilize savings from the community members, where by it can
use that savings for business and investment promotion in the community.
In additional, strengthening small and medium enterprises/business provide wealth and
ownership opportunities to the groups that face socio-economic exclusion and
discrimination. Therefore, individual members and groups participating in micro
business increase their rate of business ownership. Strengthening of
microenterprises/micro businesses is a unique process in this project in the sense
that it offers individuals the opportunity not only to generate income but also build
assets and to save as owners, not just workers. All these substantiate the project
sustainability.
5.2 SUSTAINABILITY PLAN AND SUSTAINABE DEVELOPMENT.
The project aimed at sustainable development economically, socially and
environmentally. Through increase knowledge and practice of microenterprises to
community members increase savings, deposits and shares will lead to efficient
27
utilization of accumulated resources (money) where by investors can access easily and
invest the money in productive businesses hence increase income and wealth among the
community members.
Moreover, the use of income generating activity groups and SACCO’s groups will
increase social coercion and social capital among community members. Women
participation in income generating activities and in savings and credit will be highly
encouraged to empower women and eventually take leadership position.
The project will emphasize more on the women and girls participation during the
formation of socio-economic group. Parents will be sensitized to save more for their
children’s needs such school fees and other education support for both (girls and boys)
other social groups like traditional dancing groups football clubs, FBO’s groups
(churches & mosques) will be organized & mobilized to form groups and join SACCOS
people with disabilities and other abnormalities will be sensitized and encouraged to form
socio-economic groups so as join SACCOS.
In additions income generating activities and other informal sector activities which are
not environmental friendly will be discouraged. Business activities like charcoal burning
and fire wood selling business will be discourage instead environmentally friendly
activities like use of biogas, seedlings and tree planting activities will be highly
supported.
Other stake holders like financial institutions such as Banks will be involved for financial
consultations and advice pertaining finance issues. UMAKWA CBO and World Vision
will continue to support the project financially.
28
The District government particularly through District community development and
cooperative officers will continue to guide the SACCOS and income generating
activities.
5.3 STRATEGIC PLANNING AND MANAGEMENT.
The project is highly supported by the community, local government authority and other
NGOs like World Vision due to the fact that, they were all involved in design. As
outlined in the project design, the community members are the owners of income
generating businesses (entrepreneurs) and also owners of the formed SACCOS by paying
their entrance fee, buying shares and depositing savings and deposits in the SACCOS.
They are willing to attend the workshop and trainings by contributing transport cost to the
respective workshop/training venue on top of other labour power and in kind
contribution.
The government authority as an important stake holder will be responsible for legal
registration of the SACCOS and small & medium enterprises in the community. The
District development officer, Business/commercial officer and Cooperative development
officer will be the lead facilitators/trainers of the business group’s entrepreneurs,
SACCO’S management board and other sub-committees.
However World Vision and UMAKWA CBO is going to provide financial assistance
regarding all training costs including training fees and other related cost. Both World
vision and UMAKWA CBO agreed to support the project because it is in like with their
strategic plan of empowering the poor community in sustainable issues. World Vision
through its community based programme at Kwamtoro will offer a temporary office
freely for a new established SACCOS.
29
Commercial banks like NBC, CRDB and NMB are other important stake holders’ in
terms of financial services.
Nevertheless, the overall objective of the project is to contribute to sustainable
development and poverty reduction in line with the National vision of 2025 and the
National strategy for growth and reduction of poverty (NSGRP/MKUKUTA) as well as
other national development and poverty reduction programmes. It is also in line with the
small and medium enterprise development policy of 2002, whose overall objective is to
foster job creation and income generation through promoting the creation of new small
and medium enterprises and improving the performance and contribution to the Tanzania
economy. One of the policy statement states that, the government will promote
entrepreneurship development through facilitating improved access of small and medium
enterprises to financial and non financial services.
Another policy sustaining the project is the national microfinance policy (2000) which
covers the provision of financial services to household, small holder farmers and small
micro enterprises in rural areas as well as in the urban sector. The cooperative
development policy of (2002) and the cooperative ACT NO 20 of 2003 both emphasizes
on cooperatives which are member based i.e. owned and controlled by members for
sustainability.
The two organization supporting the project (World vision and UMAKWA CBO)
guarantee the support to the project in long term due to the fact that it is a community
based organization, in the sense that, members of UMAKWA are also members of
SACCOS and other microenterprise/businesses, while World Vision maintains
relationship with their respective area Development programmes and handover all the
30
activities to the CBO and community after the end of programme. In principle World
Vision programme are run in collaboration with the respective communities.
The project will be institutionalized through the formation of SACCOS which is
established by socio economic group of 10 -20 group members. Apart from improving
the social coercion it improve the sense of social/community ownership and a self
guaranteed of the member on financial loan issues in their SACCOS and other financial
intermediaries.
The project will be sustainable over time due to the fact that, the SACCOS established
will play a great role in financial services within the area. The income generating
activities will be strengthened, while SACCO’s members will be increasing their
portfolio for self reliance in terms of capital for their respective business and other
social obligations.
My expectation for future therefore is to have a community with a strong SACCOS
which can provide/carter the member’s demand of capital for their small and medium
enterprises.
Among other things which may be needed to improve the projects sustainability is the
existence of social and political peace and stability in the country and Kwamtoro area in
particular others are practical commitment and implementation of the government
policies pertaining the project.
The sustainability indicators to monitor the sustainability of the project includes,
- varied source of funding sources
- Number of community members continuing participating in project planning
process.
31
- budget within reach of community
- number of technically competent staff in the project
- Progressive growth of project in terms of members and their portfolio capital
shares, saving, deposits.
- Number of community leaders supporting the project.
- More than 85% percent of loan repayment.
The data collection method using participatory research methods includes; interview
method through questionnaires. Other methods to be used are focus group
discussion, documentary review, transact walk and observation methods.
6.0 CONCLUSION.
The project therefore, will focus on improving economic status of the community
members, where by, the project's problem statement is “promotion of income
generating activities, savings and credit initiatives at Kwamtoro, Lalta and Ovada
wards Kondoa District, Dodoma Region.”
The concentration will be to tackle the problem of income poverty by reducing the
problem where by the identified causes are; unreliable markets, insufficient existing
businesses/income generating activities or microenterprises, lack of entrepreneurship
skills, lack of financial intermediaries, inadequate capital and low per capita income. The
income poverty in the community resulted(effects) to poor housing(muddy grass roofed
houses), inability to fulfill basic needs like education, food, medical care and treatment
and other social obligations, poor/low savings, low money circulation, small size of
informal sector, disguised unemployment, deforestation and environmental degradation.
32
The main project objectives are; to increase the knowledge and practices of
microenterprise to 54 income generating activity groups (160) members’ people by the
end of 2009, to increase the knowledge, participation and management of 1,000
community members on SACCOS issues by the end of 2009, to increase savings, shares
and deposit to 60,000,000/= by the end of 2009, to increase employment opportunities to
150 peoples by the end of 2009, to reduce disguised unemployment by 2% in October
2009 and to Increase the size of informal sector from 25% - 30% by the end of 2009.
