PROJECT SCOPE DEFINITION
The Project Scope describes the project and the intended resulting impact of successful project delivery. It clearly states how the project goals align to the UN SDGs. This provides a big picture view of the project context and its positive impact. It also answers the question of why the project is beneficial to creating value or improving society.

Step 1 (UN SDGs)
Select one UN SDG from each of the five levels. This will create a map for your intended impact and highlight where your scope requires expansion or collaboration in order to deliver all five levels. Make a note of the 5 UN SDGs you have selected.
Step 2 (Project Objectives)
For each of your UN SDGs write down a brief but precise explanation of how your project will meet each goal. These will be your project objectives. By the end of this step you will have five objectives each achieving a UN SDG.
Step 3 (Project Summary Based on Objectives)
Bullet points summarising the objectives for the project. Ensure these are SMART by identifying how they will be measured within a specified time frame.
Step 4 (The Five Levels of Positive Impact from This Project Delivery)
Identify and note strategic goals that explain how the project will deliver its L5 positive impact, L4 improvement, L3 functioning aspects, L2 transactional aspect and L1 resources.
Step 5 (Project Feasibility Considerations)
Take all of the project's relevant factors (Scope, Strategy, Budget, etc.) into account to ascertain the likelihood of completing the project successfully.
Step 6 (Scoping Milestones)
The important milestones and who is responsible for delivery on the agreed deadlines.
