Lesson 4 – MANAGEMENT OF NSTP - CWTS COMMUNITY BASED
PROJECTS
Introduction:
An important ingredient to NSTP-CWTS community immersion is the development of community –based projects. In managing NSTP-CWTS projects, the universal management functions as planning, organization, staffing, directing and controlling be given due consideration to ensure the success of the implementation of the projects.
Intended Outcome/Learning Objectives: The following are the learning outcomes we are expected to achieve at the end of the lesson:
Define project proposal as basis for implementation of the NSTP-CWTS activities in the immersion area;
Apply the process of making effective project proposal based on the identified needs of the target clientele; and
Appreciate the value of making effective project proposal in the NSTP-CWTS program.
I. REVIEW PLAN OF ACTION
A. PARTS OF A PROJECT PROPOSAL FOR NSTP-CWTS IMMERSION
PROJECTS
SECTION I
The Title. The title of the project must capture the need and present the name of the clientele to be served. The project title should be creative and catchy, and must be written in all-capital letters, bold and centered. The title must at least give the class’ target participants an idea on what the activity is all about.
Example:
OPERATION PLAN (OPLAN) CLEAN AND GREEN
(A Project on Waste Management and Green Philippines)
Project Proponents. This part enumerates the names of persons to be involved in the project, their year level (for students) and rank (for trainers), contact numbers and address. If there are several activities that requires several leaders in every undertaking, names must be specified per activity.
Example:
SECTION II
Rationale. Every project proposed has a history behind it. “Why was it proposed? What were the different bases for coming-up with such project? Is there really a need for the project?” – are just some of the guide questions that the class may use to fill this part of the proposal. It is through this chapter that the class is asked to express fully, in detail the reason why the project is relevant.
SECTION III OBJECTIVES. The objectives of the project must be written in operational terms on what you intend to do to solve identified problem related to the project. The characteristics of the objectives must be specific, measurable, attainable, realistic, and time-bound (SMART). State properly by using the right verbs what you want to address in relation to the underlying problems within a certain period of time. Example:
Consider ordering your work plan by "SMART" objectives. SMART is an acronym used by
individuals searching for more tangible, actionable outcomes in work plans. Specific. What exactly are we going to do for whom? Lay out what population you are going to serve and any specific actions you will use to help that population. Measurable. Is it quantifiable and can we measure it? Can you count the results? Remember that a baseline number needs to be established to quantify change. If you don't know the incidence rate of HIV/AIDS among South African newborns, it's going to be impossible to reliably say that you decreased incidence rates by 20%.
Groups 1 and 2 –CWTS ( BSEntrep 1) OL Class (Please enumerate the class members)
The general purpose of the project is the maintenance of the cleanliness in Barangay Molabis, Sibalom, Antique. Toward this end, the following objectives are set: 1. To imbibe the importance of cleanliness among the participants; 2. To increase the awareness of the community people on the advantages of waste management; and 3. To solicit the support of the people in maintaining cleanliness and orderliness through waste segregation.
c. Beneficiaries It should display a summary of the number of target participants and the benefits that they will derive from the project. This section should reflect the advantages or benefits that the activity will bring about when it is implemented. If possible, it should mirror outcomes- or the long term results that the people will receive. Example:
d. Coverage
The area or vicinity covered by the project and the type of clients to be served should be reflected in the proposal. This gives focus to whom the project is for and the extent of its implementation.
Example:
d. Methodology
This part cites the activities or strategies that should be undertaken in order to achieve the objectives of the project. It should describe the general approach of the project, agency counterpart in case of partnership, responsibilities and obligations, manpower requirement and the manner on how the specific activity will be undertaken.
Example:
e. Contact Person The point person/s, government officials, or entities that the University of Antique need to get in touch with for the implementation of the project.
f. Duration Specify days, weeks and months needed to complete the project. Specify when the project will commence and when it will be finished. Attach a Gantt chart of activity based on the length of the project.
Example:
The target audience will benefit from the project in terms of acquisition of know-how on waste management, prevention of diseases/illnesses associated with improper waste disposal and unhygienic surroundings.
Date of Implementation: April 21, 2020
The project will cover the 150 families of the barangay specifically the household help and unemployed housewives.
The lecture-seminar method will be employed in the project. Setting up of waste segregation bins will also be done.
Length of Implementation: One (1) day implementation only. Eight (8) hours of community work. (4 hours in the morning for the preparation of the venue and lecture. Another 4 hours in the afternoon for the cleanliness drive and distribution/placement of the waste segregation trash bins and culminating activity.)
SECTION VI D. ACTIVITIES, TIME TABLE, AND PROJECT COST. In preparation of the budget, the budgetary requirements of all activities must be considered. The amount varies depending on the extent of the project coverage. For most instances, the bigger the project, the larger the budget required. Sources of fund must also be specified. Estimate the budget cost for every activity then summarize it as shown in sample table.
Table A. On the table provided, indicate the different budget that the class needs for each activity.

EVALUATING A PROJECT PROPOSAL In preparing your Project Proposal, the following questions may help and guide you in evaluating community service and development projects or activity proposals and its accomplishment. The successful implementation of your project depend on the well thought answers on the different questions asked during the planning sessions.
Is the project necessary or desirable? Have all the factors that will directly influence the outcome of the project have been considered? What are the concerned agencies involved? Are the objectives stated clearly? Have the necessary equipment and materials been considered? Can they be made available locally? Is there enough personnel to meet the staff requirement? What are the parameters for measuring the success of the project? Is the project beneficial to the community? To the movement? To the person himself? Will there be enough funds to successfully carry out the projet
