Aid Deliverey Methods - Volume 1 Proyect Cycle Management Guidelines

These Guidelines have been prepared to support ongoing improvements in the quality of EC development assistance. Quality is defined primarily in terms
of the relevance, feasibility and effectiveness of the programmes and projects supported with EC funds, including how well they are managed.
More specifically, the Guidelines aim to support good management practices and effective decision making throughout the project management cycle – from
programming, through to identification, formulation, implementation and evaluation. The Guidelines aim to promote consistency and clarity of approach, while allowing for the operational flexibility required of a dynamic and diverse external assistance programme.
