# 2.2.4 Programme Management
A programme is defined as a number of **related projects** grouped together to ==facilitate a level of management== which allows objectives and benefits to be achieved that would have been impossible if the projects were managed individually.
Programmes, like projects, are a **way of achieving strategic goals and objectives.** However, [[Programme Management]] is **different from multi-project management** (managing many projects in parallel). Thus, while a Programme Manager (PgM) **coordinates efforts between projects**, s/he **does not directly manage the individual projects**.
