    This study examined the influence of public participation and performance of community driven development (CDD) projects in Uganda. The study specifically looked at influence of public participation in projects design, projects management and resources management on performance of community driven development. A cross-sectional study design for quantitative and qualitative analysis on 108 respondents was carried out. Data were collected by use of a self-administered questionnaire, interview guide and documentary analysis/ review. Quantitative data were analysed at univariate level basing on the mean, standard deviation and frequencies, bivariate level using correlation coefficient and multivariate using multiple linear regression using the Statistical Package for Social Sciences 17.0 (SPSS). Qualitative data was analysed by content analysis by putting together explanations and substantiating them using the respondents open responses. The study revealed a positive significant relationship between public participation in projects design and performance of community driven development projects; a positive significant relationship between public participation in projects management and performance of community driven development projects; and a positive significant relationship between public participation in resources management and performance of community driven development projects. The study concludes that public participation in; projects design, projects management and resources management, influence performance of community driven development. Therefore, it was recommended that government agencies such as Ministries, local governments; and donor communities/development partners supporting community driven development projects should ensure that there is full community members’ participation especially in non-technical areas of the projects design, projects management and resources management of community driven projects
