This research focuses on stakeholder participation and its impact on the performance of Social Security Investment Fund (SSIF) projects at Rwanda Social Security Board (RSSB).Stakeholder theory, introduced by Edward Freeman, guides the study, emphasizing the importance of considering diverse stakeholder interests in decision-making. The specific objectives include assessing how organizational stakeholders influence project performance, exploring the role of effective communication in project collaboration, and examining the impact of stakeholder participation on project service satisfaction at RSSB. The study will play role of relevant information and library increase at Mount Kigali. The study employs both descriptive and correlational statistics, using a mixed-methods approach with a target population of 810 stakeholders. Data analysis involves SPSS software, and questionnaires, distributed to 80 respondents, support empirical findings. The research is significant for Rwanda's economic development and contributes insights into global good governance practices. The findings highlights positive stakeholder engagement, with a mean rating of 4.42 and a moderate standard deviation of 0.807, signifying active involvement and reasonable level of agreement among respondents. Stakeholders are notably engaged in resource allocation and risk management, receiving a high mean score of 4.62 with low standard deviations, indicating consensus and well- received participation. Additionally, stakeholder involvement positively impacts company members' satisfaction and acceptance, with a mean score of 4.12, emphasizing their vital role in enhancing overall project performance. However, challenges in conflict resolution need significant improvement to maintain this positive trajectory. In the second part, the results reveal favorable financial trends, such as Bralirwa's increased market capitalization to Rwf 4.323 billion and Bank of Kigali's fair value gain on equity investment. RSSB should provide training and awareness programs can help stakeholders understand their roles and contributions better, and the establishment of clear roles and responsibilities ensures accountability and regular performance evaluations.

这项研究探讨了馈源对馈线的影响。馈电设备的使用经验表明,馈电设备可以在预算和时间范围内有效使用,并达到预期质量。本研究调查了如何启动、设计、执行和实施,以及如何影响馈线的质量。这项研究在卢旺达和乌干达的所有 10 个 Distrits 支线进行。这些支线网络是卢旺达的主要支线。从所有 84 名员工中挑选出 84 名受访者,并使用问卷调查,从中收到 77 份答复。本研究采用了描述性研究设计和随机提问的方法。通过定量分析,研究发现,在支线道路上,有大量的道路与支线道路相连。此外,研究还确定了这些问题在所研究的支线道路中的影响程度。研究发现,多线回归结果表明,馈线论文对馈源论文的影响很大。R 平方(R2)等于 0.880(或 88.8%),调整后的 R 平方等于 0.873(或 87.3%);这些结果显示了估计模型的拟合程度。FRCP 实施的项目启动流程、项目规划流程、项目实施流程和项目监测与控制流程的变化对绩效的长期增长影响高达 88.8%。其余的 11.2%可以由本研究未涉及的其他因素解释。方差分析结果的 p 值小于 5%,这表明 FRCP 的绩效至少受到本研究中一个自变量的显著影响。因此,计算出的 F 值等于 131.960,大于临界 F 值 2.499。因此,一般回归模型是显著的。为了帮助研究人员更好地了解研究对象、研究方法以及未来的研究对象,研究人员对所有研究对象和研究方法进行了研究。Keywords:项目管理过程、建设项目、项目绩效、馈线 Rоаds Соnstruсtiоn Рrоjeсts Rwanda.

The study aimed to analyze the effect of women’s development projects on improving the socio-welfare of beneficiaries in Gakenke district. Specifically, it sought to examine the impact of financial support provided by the Mother and Child Development Project on beneficiaries' social welfare, to assess the effect of women’s advocacy efforts by the Mother and Child Development Project on social welfare, to determine the influence of women’s training and development initiatives provided by the Mother and Child Development Project on social welfare. The sample size, calculated using the Slovin formula, comprised 170 respondents, representing beneficiaries of the Mother and Child Development Project in Gakenke district. Data were collected through documentary analysis and questionnaires. Statistical analyses, including correlation coefficient and R-squared values, were employed to assess the relationships and variations in the outcome variables. The study results found a strong positive correlation (correlation coefficient = 0.901) between financial support provided by the Mother and Child Development Project and beneficiaries' social welfare. The R-squared value of 0.63 indicated that 63% of the variation in social welfare improvement could be attributed to financial support. Additionally, the advocacy efforts of the project showed a strong positive relationship (correlation coefficient = 0.742) with social welfare improvement. The model explained 39.8% of the variation in the improvement of social welfare. In conclusion, the women's development projects, particularly those providing services like healthcare, nutrition, education, and psychosocial support through centers like the Mother and Child Development Project, significantly enhance the socio-welfare of beneficiaries. The study highlights the importance of sustained government support and the need for project sustainability to ensure long-term impact. The study recommends continued government support for women's development projects, emphasizing sustainability and long-term impact. Additionally, it suggests further research to explore additional factors influencing social welfare improvement and to evaluate the long-term effectiveness of such projects.

本研究旨在分析妇女发展项目对改善加肯克地区受益人社会福利的影响。具体而言,研究试图考察 "母亲与儿童发展项目 "提供的财政支持对受益人社会福利的影响,评估 "母亲与儿童发展项目 "开展的妇女宣传工作对社会福利的影响,确定 "母亲与儿童发展项目 "提供的妇女培训和发展举措对社会福利的影响。使用斯洛文公式计算得出的样本量包括 170 名受访者,他们都是加肯克地区母婴发展项目的受益者。数据通过文献分析和问卷调查收集。统计分析包括相关系数和 R 平方值,用于评估结果变量之间的关系和变化。研究结果发现,母婴发展项目提供的财政支持与受益人的社会福利之间存在很强的正相关性(相关系数=0.901)。0.63 的 R 平方值表明,63% 的社会福利改善差异可归因于财政支持。此外,项目的宣传工作与社会福利的改善也有很强的正相关关系(相关系数 = 0.742)。该模型解释了 39.8%的社会福利改善差异。总之,妇女发展项目,尤其是那些通过母婴发展项目等中心提供医疗保健、营养、教育和社会心理支持等服务的项目,极大地改善了受益人的社会福利。研究强调了政府持续支持的重要性,以及项目可持续性以确保长期影响的必要性。研究建议政府继续支持妇女发展项目,强调可持续性和长期影响。此外,研究还建议开展进一步研究,探索影响社会福利改善的其他因素,并评估此类项目的长期有效性。关键词妇女发展、社会福利、受益人、母婴发展中心、加肯克区、卢旺达
