CCRDA has officially launched the 2011-2014 program planning process at a ceremony held at the Office of the Secretariat on 17 June, 2010.

A nine-member Steering Committee and an eight-person Technical Committee were formed on the occasion to guide and oversee the program planning process.

A ToR released on the occasion states that the Steering Committee is composed of CCRDA members, OD/FM committee of the Board and staff of the Secretariat.

On the other hand, the ToR indicates, the Technical Committee is drawn from each of the Secretariat’s Core Team and is responsible for the technical details of preparing the 2011-14 program plan.

It was stated on the occasion that the three-year program plan is highly expected to be participatory as well as specific, measurable, attainable, realistic and time-bound (SMART).

Utmost efforts will be exerted to take lessons from the previous program plans and produce a viable, achievable and up-to-the-standard program plan for the next three years.

The 2011-2014 program plan will be readied for approval by the Board of the Consortium before 30 November, 2010. It would then be submitted to donors for funding and resource mobilization.

The 2011-2014 program planning process launching event was chaired by Ato Yabowork Haile, Board Chairperson of the Consortium and co-chaired by Dr. Meshesha Shewarega, Executive Director of CCRDA.
