Components Table Name Digital Cash Transfer "Plus" Economic Inclusion Program:(Cost $129.00 M) Developing the Social Protection Delivery System:(Cost $15.00 M) Project Management, Monitoring and Evaluation:(Cost $6.00 M) Overall Ratings Name Previous Rating Current Rating Progress towards achievement of PDO Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Implementation Progress (IP) Satisfactory Satisfactory Overall Risk Rating Low Low Implementation Status and Key Decisions The project development objectives remain achievable, and the project is on track to meeting them ahead of schedule as many of the key indicators have been achieved or exceeded. Specifically, the project has supported 127,000 beneficiary households (representing 766,253 individuals) of which 47,435 are women the main recipients of the cash transfers. Over 95 percent of beneficiaries from the first cohort have reported higher earnings as a result of project interventions (as reported by both men and women). In addition, the Unique Social Registry (RSU) currently counts 315,925 poor and vulnerable individuals, while progress is being made in terms of timely digital payments to beneficiaries (75 percent were made 11/19/2021 Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report CI- Productive Social Safety Net (P143332) on time compared to a target of 90 percent by project end). The RSU Task Force worked on the budget planning forecasting their costs over the next five years, and the development of the RSU-Management Information System will start in the first trimester of 2022. The recently concluded mission was a mid-term review (MTR), which allowed for more in-depth analysis of project benefits. For instance, the MTR noted that the cash transfers coupled with economic inclusion activities have had significant positive impacts not only on the beneficiaries but also the communities at large: (a) beneficiaries were able to strengthen or start new income generating activities (cash transfer beneficiary cohorts 1 and 2); (b) beneficiaries pooled their resources (with non-beneficiaries) to start group activities; (c) saving groups were very successful: not only are beneficiaries in cohort 1 starting a second cycle (out of 311 saving groups, 192 are starting a second cycle) but adhoc saving groups were also launched by non-beneficiaries seeing the success of their peers; (d) positive outcomes were seen in terms of improved schooling and overall improved living conditions among beneficiaries.
