Project’s funds for this activity has been fully disbursed. Component 3 - Strengthening and Improving the Performance of the Network of Employment Offices: The issues faced during implementation delayed the activities and the use of funds for this component. These activities require agreements with municipalities to produce a series of results. Despite the efforts made, the renewal of those agreements took longer than usual as the administration familiarized with Bank policies and procedures. The “Ferias the Empleo” financed under the Project were successfully implemented but there are five that remain unplanned. The Bank team started the Implementation Completion Report and an performance analysis of the Youth Employment Program with support from the Government.
