As of May 2008
APRIL 2008 - MARCH 2009 Annual Work Plan
This Annual Workplan (AWP) presents the planned projects and activities for the fourth fiscal year 2008-2009 of this five year program. It has been revised as requested by the Program Steering Committee following consultation with partners. In keeping with the Government of Canada fiscal year for budgeting and financial reporting, the workplan covers the period from April 1, 2008 to March 31, 2009. It also includes a tentative plan for the main activities projected for the remainder of the program, April to September 2009 of fiscal year 2009-10.
The AWP is divided into seven sections. Section 1 is an overview of the document and of the context in the ARMM region. Section 2 describes the intensive process used in developing the workplan of this fiscal year including the process to modify the workplan undertaken during April and May 2008. In particular, Section 2 includes the consultation processes with the PSC, Implementation Team, LGUs and other partners. Section 2 also explains that the AWP development process builds on the findings and conclusions of the mid-term evaluation. In addition, Section 2 also details the LGU and Enabling Environment partner facilitated negotiation or roadmapping process undertaken to jointly determine partners priorities, requested project interventions and level of commitment. A summary of the modifications to the workplan resulting from this process is also included. Section 3 explains how the Program will implement the mid-term evaluation recommendations. Section 4 provides the details of the development projects and activities arranged according to outcome and output area. Modifications to the project profiles resulting from the roadmapping process have been shaded so that readers can easily see the revisions. Workplan changes were also made based on concerns and recommendations from the Program Steering Committee. Section 5 discusses program support and management plans and Section 6 highlights provisions to mainstream the crosscutting themes in the Program. Section 7 presents the revised proposed Program budget and procurement plan.
