The indicator does not measure the percentage of women with actual property titles because the right Comments: to titling will not be presented as an obligation, but rather as an option. An accessible redress system will be in place to receive and handle complaints and monitor cases. Unresolved cases will be deducted from this indicator. IN00773655 ►Number of people in urban areas provided with access to Improved Water Sources under the project (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 0.00 43,190.00 Date 30-Jun-2017 28-May-2019 30-Nov-2019 30-Jun-2023 This indicator measures the actual number of people in urban areas who benefited from improved water supply services that have been constructed under the project. Guidance on "improved water sources": Improved water sources include piped household connections (house or yard connections), public standpipe, boreholes, protected dug well, protected spring and rainwater collection. Hence, "Improved Water Sources" do not include, inter alia, water provided through tanker truck, or vendor, unprotected well, unprotected spring, surface water (river, pond, dam, lake, stream, irrigation channel), or bottled water. The definition of what is considered an ‘improved water source' follows the UNICEF-WHO Joint Monitoring Program definition. Note that "Improved Water Sources" does not refer to the question of new versus Comments: rehabilitated water sources, but is the standard definition used to track progress on the Millennium Development Goals. Guidance on people with access: The data on the number of people provided with access can be estimated by TTLs by multiplying i) the actual number of piped connections with an estimate of the number of people per household connection; and/or ii) the actual number of community water points with an estimate of the number of people per community water point. The assumptions made regarding number of people per connection made should be carefully documented in the ‘comments' section of the indicator when data is entered in the ISR. Guidance on urban classification: The classification should follow the official definition used in the country. IN00773656 ►Number of people in urban areas provided with access to Improved Sanitation under the project (Number, Custom) 12/24/2019 Page 4 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Metropolitan Buenos Aires Urban Transformation Project (P159843) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 2,622.00 24,658.00 43,190.00 Date 30-Jun-2017 31-Dec-2018 30-Nov-2019 30-Jun-2023 This indicator measures the actual number of people in urban areas who benefited from improved sanitation facilities that have been constructed under the project. Guidance on "Improved Sanitation Facilities": Improved sanitation facilities include flush/pour-flush into a piped sewer system, septic tank or pit latrine, VIP latrine, pit latrine with slab, composting toilet. Hence, "improved sanitation facilities" do not include, inter alia, flush/pour-flush toilets to elsewhere (i.e., not to a sewer network, septic tank or pit latrine), bucket, hanging toilet/latrine, public facility, a shared improved facility, or no facilities, bush or field (i.e. open defecation).The definition of what is considered an ‘improved sanitation facility' follows the Comments: UNICEF-WHO Joint Monitoring Program definition. Note that "improved sanitation facilities" do not refer to the question of new versus rehabilitated sanitation facilities, but is the standard definition used to track progress on the Millennium Development Goals. Guidance on people with access: The data about the number of people with access can be estimated by TTLs by multiplying the actual number of improved sanitation facilities with an estimate of the number of people per household using the improved sanitation facility. The assumptions made regarding number of people per sanitation facility should be carefully documented in the ‘comments' section of the indicator when data is entered in the ISR. Guidance on urban classification: The classification should follow the official definition used in the country. IN00773657 ►Roads rehabilitated, Non-rural (Kilometers, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 2.50 12.61 6.00 Date 30-Jun-2017 31-Dec-2018 30-Nov-2019 30-Jun-2023 Kilometers of all non-rural roads reopened to motorized traffic, rehabilitated, or upgraded under the project. Non-rural roads are roads functionally classified in various countries as Trunk or Primary, Comments: Secondary or Link roads, or sometimes Tertiary roads. Typically, non-rural roads connect urban centers/towns/settlements of more than 5,000 inhabitants to each other or to higher classes of road, market towns and urban centers. Urban roads are included in non-rural roads. IN00773658 ►Number of people in urban areas provided with access to electricity under the project by household connections (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 0.00 662.00 43,190.00 Date 30-Jun-2017 28-May-2019 30-Nov-2019 30-Jun-2023 Access to electricity is consistent with the definition used in the World Bank energy sector. This indicator measures the number of people in urban areas that have received an electricity connection under the project via new connections aimed at connecting households. It is expected that the baseline value for this indicator will be zero. Guidance on people with electricity connection: The data on the number of people Comments: provided with electricity connections can be approximated by multiplying the actual number of household connections with an estimate of the average household size. Guidance on type of connection: In urban areas access will be provided through grid connections. A grid connection is when electricity is being supplied by a distribution network served by the country or region's interconnected transmission system. Guidance on urban classification: The classification should follow the official definition used in the country. IN00773659 ►Number of people in urban areas provided with improved storm water drainage (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 2,622.00 24,658.00 43,190.00 Date 30-Jun-2017 31-Dec-2018 30-Nov-2019 30-Jun-2023 12/24/2019 Page 5 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Metropolitan Buenos Aires Urban Transformation Project (P159843) This indicator measures the cumulative number of people in urban areas that were provided new drainage services in an area that has not had these services before, as well as with the upgrading, rehabilitation, Comments: and/or modernization of drainage services in an area with existing drainage services, constructed under the project. IN00773660 ►Number of people in urban areas provided with access to public lighting (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 3,109.00 16,056.00 43,190.00 Date 30-Jun-2017 31-Dec-2018 30-Nov-2019 30-Jun-2023 This indicator measures the cumulative number of people in urban areas that were provided new and/or Comments: improved public lighting infrastructure under the project. The target for this indicator is lower than for other services due to the estimated population of 2000 people already benefitting from this service. IN00773661 ►Number of participatory sessions carried out related to the improvement of housing conditions under sub-component 1.2 of the Project. (Number, Custom) Baseline Actual (Previous) Actual (Current) End Target Value 0.00 138.00 138.00 50.00 Date 30-Jun-2017 31-Dec-2018 31-Dec-2018 30-Jun-2023 This indicator measures the cumulative number of participatory sessions related to the resettlement process of the people that currently reside under the Illia Highway. The sessions will be carried out before, Comments: during and after the resettlement process. The government of CABA has various types of participatory sessions; according to the approach and methodology, these may be informative, consultative or decisive. On average, 20 people participate in each session, so a total of 1,000 people are expected to participate.
