The right information regarding project objectives, activities and procedures was disseminated, hence reducing considerably the lack of complete information on the project. The project also completed the major diagnosis study regarding the main NGO operating in the province and is now preparing to launch the recruitment process of the "Opérateurs d'appui-conseils" to speed up the implementation of project activities. UNOPS also completed now all relevant studies for civil works to be started this year, and is preparing to launch bids for the recruitment of contractors. These will be the main focus of the upcoming SPN mission. Page 6 of 7 The World Bank Report No: ISR5145 Restructuring History There has been no restructuring to date.
