B. Selecting Game-Changers

A number of initiatives have been identified as game-changers based on their expected impact. All relevant entities will seek to implement all the above-mentioned initiatives; however, the game-changers will receive special attention from the leadership to ensure their successful completion.

Selection of game-changers is based on two aspects: Impact and ease of implementation, with priority given to the expected impact on the program - both direct and indirect. The evaluation results are detailed in the appendix. Below is the list of game-changers and their expected impact.
