This strategy outlines a comprehensive plan for the Bilimoia Landowners Association Inc. to develop a framework and roadmap over three years. The first step involves conducting a comprehensive needs assessment, which includes identifying key stakeholders and evaluating community infrastructure needs like transport, health, and education. Engaging community members through surveys and forums is vital for gathering input and analyzing resources.
Next, the strategy focuses on designing an integrated development framework to outline strategic objectives aligned with seven development pillars. This step involves defining a vision and mission and identifying measurable key performance indicators (KPIs). The framework emphasizes sustainable practices and community engagement through participatory processes.
Finally, to implement and track progress, the strategy suggests developing a detailed implementation roadmap. Securing necessary funding and establishing regular monitoring processes are critical. By using project management tools and fostering community ownership through workshops, the strategy ensures transparent communication. Periodic evaluations and adjustments based on feedback ensure that the strategic objectives are met effectively.
