Implementation of all activities has picked up since January 2019, after all preparatory work including staffing had been put in place and an accelerated implementation plan had been launched and actionized. Key tasks under all components have been completed, achieving and even surpassing their targets. More than 59% of beneficiaries are vulnerable young female in the poorest communities, participating in community driven labor-intensive public works- and training programs, and launching income generating activities. The Project has also increased capacity of the PIU through capacity building enhancement activities and specialists joining forces with project staff to deliver impactful results. The restructuring has been completed following the last MTR mission, when a 12-month extension was proposed to ensure that the Project achieves its development objective. The declaration of a health state of emergency in March 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic led to the temporary halt of Project activities, which were resumed in June 2020 under the application of social distancing measures agreed upon with the PIU and the authorities. To date, 14,124 of 2/23/2021 Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Employment Opportunities for Vulnerable Youth Project (P157036) targeted youth have benefited from the program and it is projected that all targets will be achieved by closing of the Project in December 2021, serving 200 of the poorest communities in Togo.
