To develop activities:
  • Refer back to the lessons learned from previous projects.
  • Identify best practices from other agencies/ projects/sources.
  • Activities as identified by the communities
  • Develop activities by listing numbers, so that they can referred back easily
  • Leave space for unplanned activities that can be added later during project implementation
Activities are usually listed out in a Gantt Chart. A Gantt Chart is a kind of a time table of all project activities given along with the role and responsibilities of the project staff.
