At the central level this involves training in road construction and maintenance procedures according to the DoLIDAR training needs survey and plan applicable for the period 2008-11. Also support is provided to the Sector Wide Approach (SWAp) in the Rural Transport Infrastructure sector. As recommended by RAP2, the SWAp is now focussed on maintenance of rural roads, rather that the upgrading or building of new roads.

At a local level, training is also required in road construction and maintenance procedures according to the DoLIDAR training needs survey. RAP2 also provides technical support to the DDCs through the supplementary infrastructure and maintenance components. In addition, RAP2 supports the preparation of the District Road Master Plans (DTMP) and the Annual Road Maintenance Plans (ARMP) in two RAP Districts and four other Districts.

At a community level, RAP2 supports the establishment of institutions aligned to the road building effort. Within each Village Development Committee (VDC) area, Local Road User Committees (LRUC) are formed from representatives of the road building groups and Local Road Coordination Committees (LRCC) are formed from respected members of the communities.

RAP2 also provides awareness raising activities through street drama, mass meetings, and formal training programmes on subjects such as HIV/AIDS, and techniques in accessing basic services (health and hygiene, education), which has resulted in increased levels of confidence and awareness among the workers.
