5 Labour Sources: 80% unemployed However. Core Welfare Indicators Questionnaire 2007 shows: Workforce of little more than 1m 11% is unemployed and 8% of those working are undermployed Almost 50% of the employed workforce is involved in unpaid work of low productivity Early 2007 minimum wage at US$ 2.5
6 Bank Response US$10m from the GFRP, to : Support vulnerable women and children with WFP to feed up to 62,000 children (3m) Support the agricultural supply response to reduce post-harvest losses and increase the productivity of rice and cassava (4m) Provide temporary employment through a Cash for work program (CfWTEP 3m), in particular create 680,000 person/days labor in 2 years (approximately 17,000 workers)

10 Targeting of beneficiaries Earlier focus on ex-combatants (UNMIL, ILO, Mercy Corps, USAID); now on vulnerable; Workers need to be at least 18 years old; Pregnant women are not allowed to work; No other benefit than the daily wage; The workforce includes at least 30% women (in practice more than 50%) Role of IP, of communities and local authorities
11 Wage level As of 2007 the minimum wage was at US$ 2.5 a day. Originally the project was designed at a wage level of US$ 2.5; However: 1) because of increase in prices during 2007 and 2008; 2) other agencies running similar programs at US$ 3.00; 3) various pressure the daily wage was set at US$ 3.00 Self-targeting for 40 working days only. This translates into 75% of the project cost to labour and materials and 25% management costs.
12 Implementation arrangements The Liberian Agency for Community Empowerement (LACE) manages the project LACE contracts Implementing Partners (IP) by county to manage project operations and to report to LACE. IP work very closely with communities and local authorities. ECOBANK makes the payments (either through its branches or by sending mobile teams with security) LACE trasfers funds to ECOBANK to make payments, pay fees to IP, and procures and distributes equipments
13 Implementation arrangements IDA LACE CF/CSO County City Worker Comm. Ecobank 1. Selection 2. Contract 3. Funds 4. Reports
14 Role of IP/communities IP interact with communities using participatory tools that LACE has already developed for the CEP to: Select beneficiaries, to ensure that vulnerable families are given priority; Disseminate information on the objectives of the project; Select appropriate Cash-for-Work activities; Maintain order on payment days; Provide feedback on activities; Liaise with local authorities to obtain government/county authorizations and support; Strenghten communities Manage the distribution of tools to beneficiaries once the program is over
15 MTR/Survey With Development Dialogue on Values and Ethics unit, will survey 1000 beneficiaries Main Objectives: Check on their income/assets situation (pre/post) And on substitution effect Targeting and improvements to be made to the Project If appropriate prepare the ground for additional financing
