The Programme aims to develop the capacity of middle-income countries to develop major successful infrastructure projects in the partner countries above. To achieve this impact, the programme will: train officials in UK best practice methodologies in infrastructure project planning, preparation and delivery; encourage long-term adoption of these methodologies via policy and process changes; support a number of specific pilot infrastructure projects, using the methodologies, in selected partner countries to demonstrate effectiveness and embed their use Meeting these objectives will assist the countries to develop the economic and social infrastructure they need to sustain inclusive economic growth. They will also increase the number of good infrastructure projects coming to market as viable investment propositions, helping to reduce the infrastructure gap (increasing the number of proposed projects being completed).
