This is due to the fact that the Project was designed with Component 3 entering into full delivery mode one year before Components 2 and 1. As the Project did not receive any counterpart funding during the first year of implementation (as previously reported), some activities and subcomponents have not been fully launched, which is reflected in the indicators with a 0 value. Nonetheless, the Project is now progressing according to the expected sequencing and trends on progress made on indicators are positive. 4/25/2019 Page 5 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Strengthening the Science, Technology and Innovation System in Peru (P156250) Data on Financial Performance Disbursements (by loan) Project Loan/Credit/TF Status Currency Original Revised Cancelled Disbursed Undisbursed % Disbursed P156250 IBRD-86820 Effective USD 45.00 45.00 0.00 16.00 29.00 36% Key Dates (by loan) Project Loan/Credit/TF Status Approval Date Signing Date Effectiveness Date Orig.
