The following characteristics of an ineffective FFW-assisted project were also identified: Projects with lack of participation by the community, which can lead to jealousy and division within the community. * Inadequate complementary non-food resources. * When employment overrides development objectives, e.g. projects which are not needs-based in terms of assets, but based on availability of food. * Poor project monitoring and evaluation. Inherent Program Constraints The CRS FFW Program does face several inherent constraints, which future program support will need to take into consideration. The following constraints were identified as inherent constraints to the FFW Program by CRS representatives during the July 1, 1987 semina r: Selection of Consignees: Each Bishop of a diocese within the Catholic Church in India selects the CRS consignees. This selection process is outside of CRS control. CRS zonal offices, however, -an "deselect" consignees if their management performance is poor, or if they fail to submit FFW Development Plans. Proect Folder Selection (and their staff): Consignees select project holders - a process which is also outside CRS's control. As with consignees, however., the zonal offices can "deselect" project holders if their ,roiect performance is poor. In some instances, CRS zonal offices have recommended that project holders be Included In a particular consignee area. * Transfer of Consirnees and Project Polders: Because of the turnover of individuals in consignee and project holder roles - due to transfers within the Church organization - CRS finds it difficult at times to maIntain program ouality and continut'. CPS sees its relationships with the Bishops as essential in assuring good replacements in consignee pos2 tions. * Th~ VountarvNature , of the Program: The FF ' Program is dependent to a large degree on voluntary assistance - from site supervision, to transport for CRS monitoring and review staff. CRS expectations of the FF' Program are constrained by this program reality.
The Food Resource Itself: Food is a difficult resource to program because of the logistics of getting It to the project sire, and effectively managing its dispersal. Moreover, because the beneficiaries are required to pay the transport costs from consignee warehouses, it is difficult to target the resource to the poorest of the poor. The Strict Audit Requirements: The management of the program is overly focussed on the next USC audit, at the expense of project innovation. Program implementors are afraid to take risks on new project types, preferring to stay with the "safe" standard project types, e.g. wells, tanks and roads. Food Habits of the People: The bulgar provided by the FFW Program in India is not totally acceptable to people in some areas. This constraint affects the ability of projects to attract sufficient and productive workers. AID/Washington sets the Dollar Ceiling: CRS has seen its FFW planning process restricted by the setting of annual dollar ceilings by AID Washington. Long-term planning, they say, requires long-term commitments. CRS expects multiyear program approval to ease the impact of this constraint on the FFW Program.
