Progress was noted since the April 2021 mission with the provisional delivery of the the Soukissa Market in Brazzaville and the launch of the rehabilitation works of Tchiniambi-1 market in Pointe Noire and the delivery of 21 km of paved roads in Brazzaville and Pointe-Noire (out of the 18 km planned). Such progress is reflected in the level of disbursement rate, which now stands at 62% (vs 44.5% in April 2021). However, in view of number of activities remaining to be implemented by the end of the project, there is a risk that the activities will not be completed on time. 11/24/2021 Page 1 of 8 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Urban Development and Poor Neighborhood Upgrading Project (P146933) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance Substantial High High Macroeconomic Substantial High High Sector Strategies and Policies Moderate Moderate Moderate Technical Design of Project or Program Moderate Moderate Moderate Institutional Capacity for Implementation and Substantial High High Sustainability Fiduciary Substantial Substantial Substantial Environment and Social Moderate Substantial Substantial Stakeholders Moderate Moderate Moderate Other -- -- -- Overall Substantial Substantial Substantial Results PDO Indicators by Objectives / Outcomes Improve access to infrastructure and basic services IN01049468 ►Direct project beneficiaries (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 75,000.00 201,734.00 150,000.00 Date 14-Jan-2016 07-Apr-2021 01-Oct-2021 18-May-2021 IN01049471 Female beneficiaries (Percentage, Custom Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 53.00 53.00 53.00 53.00 IN01049472 ►Number of people in urban areas provided with access to all-season roads within a 500 meter range under the project (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target 11/24/2021 Page 2 of 8 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Urban Development and Poor Neighborhood Upgrading Project (P146933) Value 0.00 100,000.00 155,355.00 150,000.00 Date 14-Jan-2016 07-Apr-2021 01-Oct-2021 18-May-2021 Strengthen government and municipal capacity for urban upgrading IN01049469 ►Neighborhood upgrading plans for which the UDPNUP activities implemented (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 2.00 4.00 4.00 Date 14-Jan-2016 07-Apr-2021 01-Oct-2021 30-Jun-2022 IN01049470 ►Municipal infrastructure asset management system in place and municipalities’ key assets managed according to asset management plans (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 7.00 Date 14-Jan-2016 11-Dec-2018 11-Dec-2018 18-May-2021 IN01049473 ►Beneficiaries that feel project investments reflected their needs (percentage) (Percentage, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 55.00 55.00 75.00 Date 14-Jan-2016 07-Apr-2021 07-Apr-2021 18-May-2021 IN01049474 Beneficiaries that feel project inv. reflected their needs - female (number) (Number, Custom Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 74,531.00 IN01049475 Total beneficiaries - female (number) (Number, Custom Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 79,500.00 IN01049476 Total beneficiaries - male (number) (Number, Custom Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 70,500.00 IN01049477 Beneficiaries that feel project inv. reflected their needs - male (number) (Number, Custom Supplement) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target 11/24/2021 Page 3 of 8 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Urban Development and Poor Neighborhood Upgrading Project (P146933) Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 52,875.00 Overall Comments PDO The indicator related to municipal infrastructure asset management system was updated to account for the management of infrastructure built under the project.

The indicator related to opinion of beneficiaries will be documented once the 2021 beneficiary surveys will be conducted which should be done by the end of the 2021 calendar year.

Actual results for both indicators will be adjusted following this M&E session between the Bank and the client. For the indicators related to beneficiaries impressions, this will be documented once the 2021 beneficiary surveys will be conducted which should be done by the end of the 2021 calendar year. 11/24/2021 Page 6 of 8 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Urban Development and Poor Neighborhood Upgrading Project (P146933) Performance-Based Conditions Data on Financial Performance Disbursements (by loan) Project Loan/Credit/TF Status Currency Original Revised Cancelled Disbursed Undisbursed % Disbursed P146933 IBRD-85880 Effective USD 80.00 80.00 0.00 49.74 30.26 62% Key Dates (by loan) Project Loan/Credit/TF Status Approval Date Signing Date Effectiveness Date Orig.
