and challenges on project managers change their ways of managing community
projects in their sphere of operation. The above challenges had necessitated the researcher to investigate the challenges
faced by managers in managing community projects in Modimolle Local Municipality of
Limpopo Province. The management of community projects in Modimolle Local Municipality is fraught with
challenges such as financial resources, lack of focus on economic development,
improvement of livelihood, community participation, sustainability, delegation and also
not adhering to Public Financial Management Act and Municipal Financial Management
Act. To understand the total context of the challenges faced by managers in managing
community projects, an in-depth study of this problem was done by means of relevant
literature review, empirical study and variety of other suitable research techniques. Data
was collected by means of questionnaires and semi-structured interviews, from project
managers who had an experience of community work in the area of the study. The studies have revealed that the management of community projects is not
determined by one factor. It emerged that there are various factors that prohibit
managers to manage community projects in their sphere of operation, hence the
recommendations for improvement stated in chapter five.
