MPRA Paper from University Library of Munich, Germany

Abstract: It is natural that gigantic projects attract intense scrutiny and constant evaluation. This is the case with the Shire Valley Transformation Programme (SVTP) which is currently USD520 million undertaking for both Phase I and II but Phase II costing will be determined in its project life running from 2018 through 2031. This study subjected SVTP to the basic SDGs Evaluation Model and it shows that there are so many gaps which must be addressed for the project to be SDGs compliant and have meaningful impact to Malawi and indeed its citizens. The sooner the observable deficiencies are addressed the better for Malawi.
