The main project indicators, including total beneficiaries, and measures of community participation and technical quality are all beyond the targets set. For example, target beneficiaries are already 19% beyond the target, 87% of villagers have voted on villages priorities compared to the target of 75%, and more than 9,962 households are taking self-help group loans for livelihood investment compared to a target of 8,000. The final cycle of community sub-projects, Cycle 16, has begun procurement and is currently on schedule to be completed by the end of the year.
