Abstract

The main research objective is to examine or investigate the determinants of successful implementation of donor funded projects in Tanzania. The determinants are defined by four attributes: Knowledge in management, rationality, risk management and monitoring and evaluation. In this study, the successfulness of the donor funded projects was considered or reflected by the combination effect of these four attributes. The researcher conducted descriptive research for 30 projects in Arusha, Kilimanjaro and Dar es Salaam regions. Data were obtained from 156 donor funded project staff, selected by purposive sampling techniques covering projects managed within the government and outside the government systems using a questionnaire. Data were analyzed by descriptive statistics. The findings show that the combination attribute defining the successful implementation of donor funded projects is related by 67% (R2=0.675937) to the four attributes when considered independently. The results also indicated that, the entire four attributes are significantly associated with successful implementation of Donor Funded Projects (p value <0.005 under 95% confidence). This indication is relevantly suggesting the importance of optimum implementation and possible adjustments that can be made to improve the current situation for better performance of donor funded projects in Tanzania. Keywords: Project Implementation, Risk management, Monitoring and Evaluation, Rationality, Management.
