The DDM is enhancing the system of cooperative governance as a catalyst for

Catalytic projects will be drawn from the completed District Profiles. A prioritisation
framework will be developed and applied to the project portfolio to yield the prioritised
projects. These projects will require different types of specialist studies, business case
and business plans to get the projects to investment stage readiness. These studies will
be used to leverage funding from the private and public investors. Once the project
preparation has been completed, focussed investment meetings/seminars/platforms
will be conducted to secure project investment.
