Information and Planning 2

Peter Sims, a professor at the University of Papua New Guinea, emphasizes the importance of planning starting with a problem analysis, stakeholder engagement, SWOT analysis, and solution mapping. He discusses the logical framework, risk management strategy, operational and strategic planning methodologies, and the If and Then cycle for effective project formulation. This approach guides the development of a clear plan, program, and project for improving child health and malaria prevention initiatives in rural Africa.
