The frequency of project appraisal meetings will be increased during the first six months of project implementation to ensure a good start and to overcome the problems inherent in this phase of the project cycle. Team meetings will be held every three months and reports will document the process. A semi-annual technical and financial report will also be produced to consolidate the outputs.
