answers to the questions like what, why, how and when as well as by whom and
where the work is to be done.
What is development programme?

Steps in programme planning?
For a successful programme the following steps need to be
taken .The entire process of programme planning can be divided broadly into 2 phases:
1. Programme planning
2. Programme Action (implementation)

| Programme planing process |
1. Initial phase of programme planning: one should be
careful in this phase. From this phase only the programme will succeed. Under
this phase we have the following stages:
A. collection of facts:
it’s a firsthand information collected which will consist the
information like basic information of the people, living condition of the people,
facilities and the problems or issues faced by them. It’s very important stage
in programme planning.
B. Analysis of situation: Based on the facts collected we
should analyze the situation based on facts and we should verify the facts.
C. Identification of problems: based on the facts collected and
after analyzing the situation ,we should try to identify the problems in
participation of the locals after that we should prioritized the problems as major
and minor.
D. Determination of objectives: after identifying the
problems we should formulate the objectives to achieve the goals i.e. solution
to the problems. After discussing with expert in the field the objectives were
formulated.
2. Programme implementation phase: its second phase were the
paper work of first phase will be implemented in to reality .The following are
the stages in this phase:
A. Development of plan of work: in this stage we will
prepare the blue print of the programme it contains the details of where, when,
who, how, whom will do the work and how we will achieve our goals.
B. Execution of plan: it’s the practical stage where we
implement our plans into ground level. It’s very important stage with
carefulness we should execute of plans.
C. Evaluation of the process: execution of plan was done now
we should evaluate the process how much the programme is completed and in what
time? Whether the resources were properly utilized or not? etc. Evaluation can
be done during the programme (called concurrent evaluation) and after
completion of work (summative evaluation). In some case in the beginning of
process also evaluation is done (formative evaluation).
D. Reconsideration: Under this process the feedback from the
locals will be collected and the good points as well as gaps/shortcomings will
be discussed and if programme is continued or implanted again
the gaps or short comings will be considered for the improvements .Like this the
cyclic programme planning process will be there.
We discussed the
general process the same can be applied in field with slight modification
according to the field’s requirements.
“For any successful programme,
the participation of local people is very important”
