Programme Designs may flow from Business Environment Assessments, or they may precede the Assessment, defining possible activities with sufficient flexibility to accommodate the findings of Assessments conducted throughout Implementation. Programme Designs tend to be static in nature, based on a snapshot of the Environment at a given moment in time. Nonetheless, design documents remain important in justifying funding decisions, so are posted on this site, where available.
