Abstract
Success has continued to elude many projects world over and hence raised the need to step up measures aimed at
reversing this trend. Given the unique nature of particular projects, any efforts to cause project success ought to
be targeted at a clearly defined set of projects. This study aimed at investigating the strategic role that the ethical
climate components of Egoism, Principle and Benevolence play in enhancing the performance of Poverty
Eradication Projects in LDCs, particularly Uganda. Cross sectional and quantitative survey designs were used
with a study sample of 323 National Agricultural Advisory Services (NAADS) projects. The results revealed
that the ethical climate components of Egoism, Principle and Benevolence positively relate with and predict
performance of poverty eradication projects. These findings generate implications and inform particular
recommendations on the success of projects in LDCs as this article articulates.
