Decentralized Health Services Project

The scope and implementation coverage of projects should be manageable. For significant impact, project investment should not be spread too thinly nor be so ambitious in scope as to hamper implementation. The project interventions, while generating some positive outcomes locally, did not show much impact at the provincial level because they were too small to produce a broader impact. Concentrating investment in a few provinces would have been more effective. Strategic investment choices based on poverty and health needs should have been made when deciding geographical coverage.
