Students select one of several Request for Proposals (RFA) for a specific situation, conduct a needs assessment, create a problem statement, set goals and objectives, and a theory of change for this proposed project. Students learn how to address community participation, human resources and their training and supervision, project information, approaches to sustainability, logistics of service delivery, project budgeting and financial management, monitoring, and evaluation, and finally close out of a project. At the conclusion, students develop a proposal ready for submission to a donor that embodies their PHC project design responsive to the RFA.
