ORGNAIZATIONAL STRUCTURE

Sangat defines Programme cycles with a strategic plan covering a period of three years. This initial term plan is defining broad objectives of the phase and the year by the sectors of intervention. Yearly operational plans have been worked out.

The Programme management has institutionalized monthly meetings at the field level; each meeting lasting approximately one day. These meetings serve the review of a previous month, the planning of the subsequent ones, the exchange of experience as well as the co-ordination of activities between the sections of Programme support and Programme operations as well as administration and finance (e.g. allocation of funds /use of vehicles). Monthly technical reports are prepared by the field teams and consolidated into monthly comprehensive Programme reports by the Monitoring of project Coordinators. These also prepare quarterly, half yearly and the annual reports on a routine basis, which summarize the monthly report for the respective period of time.

Detailed analyses related to results/targets/objectives achievements are undertaken. Now system exists to assess effects and impact of activities. Though, such assessments are difficult to be applied with the short term planning and monitoring systems but here in Sangat they do provide monitoring indicators to qualify results and process.
