Local development committees (CoLoDés) in the 4 urban neighborhoods targeted by the Project have been set up. While significant citizen engagement activities in the target neighborhoods were significantly advanced (which is essential to the success and sustainability of the restructuring operations under the program), project disbursement remains at a low rate of 7%. Despite progress of soft activities in the field with notable commitment from the PIU's community outreach specialists, key and high value activities have not been yet launched. However, procurement for civil road works has been progressing well and first tranche of works is scheduled to 8/14/2019 Page 1 of 7 The World Bank Implementation Status & Results Report Urban Development and Poor Neighborhood Upgrading Project (P146933) commence early in the second half of 2019. In addition, technical studies are progressing for water and electricity works as well as for site protection against erosion. The Grievance Redress Mechanism has been approved by the Bank and is currently being rolled out on the ground and introduced to the various project stakeholders The next implementation support mission is scheduled for September 2019.
