Cumulative disbursement to date stands at US$8.37 million (18%) which has been spent on the recruitment of project personnel and preparatory activities. A number of preparatory activities are underway but with delays. These include among others: recruitment of PMU staff, finalization of project implementation methodology, finalization of the Project Implementation Manual (PIM), design and establishment of the M&E mechanism, review of the engineering designs of the quick win projects, and finalization of the Communications Strategy. Key issues include: (i) implementation delays emanating from delayed PMU staffing (exacerbated by the COVID-19 pandemic) and substandard quality of outputs; (ii) lack of close coordination between UNOPS and IOM. These issues have been highlighted during the recent Implementation Support Mission and measures are being undertaken to address them. 3/30/2021 Page 1 of 6 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report South Sudan Enhancing Community Resilience and Local Governance Project (P169949) Risks Systematic Operations Risk-rating Tool Risk Category Rating at Approval Previous Rating Current Rating Political and Governance High High High Macroeconomic High High High Sector Strategies and Policies High High High Technical Design of Project or Program High High High Institutional Capacity for Implementation and High High High Sustainability Fiduciary High High High Environment and Social High High High Stakeholders High High High Other High High High Overall High High High Results PDO Indicators by Objectives / Outcomes Improved access to basic infrastructure IN00971846 ►Number of people with access to improved infrastructure due to the project (disaggregated by infrastructure type, gender, displacement status) (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 630,000.00 Date 01-Aug-2020 09-Nov-2020 09-Nov-2020 31-Jul-2023 Comments: Number of people that have access to improved infrastructure due to project.
