Programme Design and Management

End-to-end design and management of multi-year programmes, including planning, delivery teams, budgets, monitoring, learning and funder reporting.

Participants and delivery partners reviewing technical assistance equipment for supported enterprises

IMED designs and manages complete development programmes, not only individual activities. We turn an objective into a workable intervention, mobilise the delivery team, manage implementation and reporting, measure results and document lessons. This gives funders and institutional clients one accountable partner across the full programme cycle.
