In this article, I present Amref's total three-year budget for the Katine Community Partnerships Project, pulling out some of the headline figures. It shows exactly how Amref is allocating its resources, how much is being spent on the delivery of project activities on the ground in Uganda, and how much on overheads, salaries and Amref management costs.
It is extremely rare for any NGO to allow its budget for a project to be put under the microscope in this way, but the resulting data is invaluable for those interested in how development works, as well as for other development experts to examine.
So what do you think? Is Amref spending money in the right areas? How does it compare to other projects of a similar nature? Is £2.6m enough for a project such as this? Please post your comments below.
