Abstract
The study examined the implementation of behavioral change project by Inter-Religious Council of Uganda (IRCU). The study sample comprised of 390 respondents who were behavior change project team members and Faith congregations from Kampala, Wakiso and Mpigi district.
The study findings show there was planning before the implementation of the behavioral change project with Project Supervisors paying attention to time scheduling of project activities, a standard reporting system and that all stakeholders were involved in project implementation activities. The findings also show that there was donor’s interference in the smooth running of the project. The Inter-Religious Council of Uganda (IRCU) is experiencing difficulty in finding sufficient, appropriate and continuous funding for its work. Proper resource scheduling expenditure, timely planning, and timely disbursements of funds, and teamwork among stakeholders will improve implementation of behavioral change project.
