Thesis (M. Dev.) -- University of Limpopo, 2016. / The management of projects has gained an increasing impetus amongst
researchers throughout the world in the last decade. Most of the research
projects have focused on which extent can lack of resources affect the
implementation of projects in developing countries. Little has been said about the
relationship between lack of corporate governance and the management of
projects for small scale sugar cane farmers. In this study, the researcher focused
on the effects of project management on poverty alleviation and sustainable
livelihoods. The study used a mixed method research design which equally
employed case study and descriptive approaches. From the quantitative
perspective, structured questionnaires were administered, while in the qualitative
approach semi-structured interviews were conducted to collect data. Results
indicated that the success of projects aimed at poverty alleviation and
sustainable livelihoods is dependent on the successful implementation of project
management skills. The research amongst others recommend that training and
financial support be prioritised for the community projects to achieve their
intended objectives.
