Usually, a project proposal consists of the following components and most donor agencies prefer to cover this information for any kind of project they wish to fund:
- Cover Page
- Table of Content
- Executive Summary
- Problem Statement
- Project Description
- Goal
- Objectives
- Project Activities
- Project Results
- Project Timeline
- Monitoring and Evaluation
- Risk and Assumptions
- Sustainability
- Communication
- Budget
- Organization Profile
Some proposal templates can be very short, defining just the problem, objectives and activities. While others (like the USAID, EU ones) can be very long, covering in-depth research and analysis of the proposed project concept.
