The health status of the population has deteriorated due to severe neglect of the health system, especially in the rural areas, where 80% of the population lives. The poor health status of the rural population points to a weak primary health care (PHC) system. To overcome this mismatch, the government, recognised the needs to pay greater attention to health service delivery at community levels. Consequently, the government built an innovative partnership with DFID to improve rural PHC by improving health information and monitoring systems, and revitalize rural health facilities. DFID had offered preparatory technical assistance on health needs and service capacity. Initiating: Workshop was held to identify deliverables and milestones. Several meetings were held to identify key stakeholders. Identified and validated the project interdependencies. Documented high-level risks, assumptions and constraints. The British council had developed the project charter and was the project sponsor. Planning: Assessed detailed project requirements, constraints, and assumptions with stakeholders. Collected requirements and defined scope. The roles and responsibilities of the project team members were defined. Conducted kick-off meeting where communicated the start of the project and the key milestones. My role: I was the project team leader for Akwa Ibom State.

I also provided overall guidance to the implementation of the project, established partnership consultation process leading to agreements with stakeholders. My responsibilities also included: managing task execution by leading the project team ,measuring project performance , and obtaining stakeholder feedback to evaluate their satisfaction (CL). As project team leader, I manage the schedule, total resource requirement, risks on the project, quality requirements, especially performance and stakeholders management.

I participated in the project review workshop with the British Council leadership. Executing: I ensure the assignments were carried out in phases. These included implementation of appropriate data collection methods used in research, assessment, and evaluation. We carried out surveys, key informant interviews, focus groups and observations to build a data set. The emphasis was on the need to build shared ownership of community health. Project outcome This project was completed under budget and within the stated timeline.The findings assisted the government in implementing policies, standards, and strategies for strengthening the rural health sector within the framework of the PHC. At the end of the project, I released project resources, documented lessons learned and prepared project for the sign off.

It also requires maintaining the quality of the project – right from inception to the final deliverables.

It takes a month to produce. For a month I ensure production schedules and cycles. On a daily basis, I set up and monitor each stage from manuscript assessment to editing, page layout and design, proofs, and deliverables.

Manage the Team: the editor and the team create work requirements, match capabilities and put together an effective team. Communicate Effectively: As an editor, I schedule regular meetings to ensure that the editorial project is on track and all members are meeting their milestones. My responsibility as the editor is to keep a look out for any warning signs that could cause a variance in the schedule and delivery or compromise the quality of the magazine deliverables. |

It's really impossible to understand your question, Mr. Eisset.
The description is far too long for the PMI application which, I believe limits every project entry to 500 words. (It used to be 500 characters!) So, you'll have to figure out how to pare it down quite a bit. Harry +++++
