Introduction:

Project lifecycle planning represents the structured framework that organizes projects from initiation through design, implementation, operation, and closure. In the water and wastewater sectors, lifecycle approaches ensure that infrastructure projects are aligned with technical, environmental, and governance requirements. This training program introduces institutional frameworks, planning models, and monitoring structures specific to water and wastewater projects. It also highlights broader perspectives on sustainability, compliance, and resilience in managing infrastructure lifecycles.
