Project disbursements currently stand at US$4 million out of the total grant amount of US$17 million. With the activation of the Cash for Work component, disbursements are expected to increase considerably over the coming months. The implementation arrangement involving close coordination with the Advisory Committee consisting of representation from the Ministry of Finance and Planning, the Ministry of Labor, the Ministry of Social Development, the Palestinian Fund for Employment and Social Protection and the NGO Development Center, has proven instrumental and effective.
