| Project Outcome | |
|---|---|
| Description of Outcome | The Project's outcome will be sustainably-managed biodiversity corridors in Cambodia, Lao PDR and Vietnam. |
| Progress Toward Outcome | CAM: Grant closing_date has been extended to 31 Dec 2020. The CAD delayed due to project design involving multiple small scale infrastructures (SSI) requiring complex due diligence review and clearance._Full DMF achievement is questionable due to current slow progress and quality of activities under grant components. Further issues in relation to reported progress towards outcome, achievements, and reprioritizing of the 2020 workplan priorities in order to effectively delver the project outcomes are on-going. End line surveys and remaining small scale civil works being completed._LAO: The grant closing date was 30 September 2019, the financial closing is on-going. At the end of Q2 2020, overall physical progress is estimated at 100% against an elapsed time of 109% . Cumulative contract awards and disbursement are $19.947 million (99.9%) and $19.902 million (99.7%), respectively. The progress of four outputs are on track: (i) institutions and communities strengthened in biodiversity corridor management; (ii) biodiversity corridors restored, ecosystem services protected and maintained; (iii) livelihood improved and small-scale infrastructure support provided in target villages; and (iv) project management and support services operationalized. The Project covers 67 villages in 5 districts across Champasak, Sekong and Attapeu provinces.VIE: The loan elapsed implementation period is 100%, loan closing date was 30 Sep 2019. Total cumulative contract awards and disbursements (including interest during construction-IDC) are $23.7 million and $22.5 million, respectively, equivalent to 87% and 83% of the net loan amount of $27.052 million. Key project activities completed, disbursement of about $2.4M is pending due to insufficient ODA allocation for 2019._Government committed to allocate additional budget in Q1 2020, and finance post-project activities to ensure project outcome sustainability. To further assess during PCR mission. |
