A gender perspective may include, for example: (i) Actions to promote women's participation in the workforce, management, or ownership (ii) Design of gender-responsive products or services (iii) Commitments to equal pay, workplace safety, or family-friendly policies (iv) Consideration of gender-specific market opportunities or barriers (v) Inclusion of gender analysis in business planning The indicator reflects the project's contribution to promoting gender-responsive business practices in the fisheries and other sectors. This indicator measures the number of fisheries management plans that have been implemented through operations supported by the World Bank. This indicator relates to the actual application and enforcement of measures to control fishing in a determined geographic area. Fishing units accessing the fisheries are identifiable (registered, marked, possibly licensed), and management measures (such as gear and spatial or period restrictions) are applied and enforced (as demonstrated by a minimum rate of control of the target fleet each year, and prosecution of identified delinquents). This indicator is provides evidence that strengthened regional, evidence-based fisheries management is effective. While the priority management plans will be determined by the SWIOFC Commission, from the activities supported by the project, SWIO countries will implement improved management plan for at least 6 species, based on mutual interest. The index will be defined and approved through a consultative process involving SWIO member states, coordinated by the SWIOFC Scientific Committee. It will serve as a tool for tracking progress toward more coordinated, strategic, and effective regional research and innovation activities. The index will be developed by the SC, but it is expected that it will capture key dimensions of regional fisheries research such as: (i) Level of regional cooperation on applied research (ii) Operationalization of research partnerships (iii) Implementation progress of priority research and innovation activities (iv) Use of research in stock assessment and fisheries management advice This indicator measures the percentage of project beneficiaries who rate their satisfaction with project-supported job-focused interventions as “satisfied” (or higher) based on feedback collected through surveys or other forms of beneficiary consultation (including both the participants in training activities and holders of new jobs). The indicator helps assess perceived quality, relevance, and usefulness of these activities from the beneficiaries perspective. Results are disaggregated by gender to monitor female satisfaction rates. This indicator assesses satisfaction from the quality, relevance, and value of the matching grants scheme from the perspective of private sector beneficiaries. It measures the percentage of beneficiary companies participating in the matching grant scheme that rate their satisfaction with the above three criteria as ‘Satisfied’ or above. The gender breakdown indicator will measure the satisfaction level of female-owned companies. Includes commercial debt financing, matching equity financing, and private equity investments in SMEs supported by TA or matching grants and viability gap financing. Project net greenhouse gas (GHG) emissions are calculated as an annual average of the difference between project gross (absolute) emissions aggregated over the economic lifetime of the project and the emissions of a baseline (counterfactual) scenario aggregated over the same time horizon. They are reported in metric tons of carbon dioxide equivalent per year. Regional fisheries database designed as per advice of the SWIOFC Scientific Committee and the SWIOFC Working Parties, reflecting recommendations from past reports from them. Share of SMEs receiving top-up allocation based on their gender responsive business plans, including female job creation target, provision of childcare services, safe transport facilities, and flexible work hours. Improved competitiveness will be measured for the companies supported by the project with TA or matching grant. Improvement in competitiveness will be determined if progress is shown in at least 2 of the following criteria: (i) Improved ability to access credit from commercial banks (reported by beneficiaries and measured by a 3-years average increase in credit received from commercial banks) (ii) Increase in gross revenue (reported by beneficiaries) (iii) Percent reduction of input raw materials or cost of energy per unit of gross revenue earned (reported by beneficiaries). These include: (i) national biosecurity bill, (ii) reformed national regulation or policy for leasing of uninhabited islands, (iii) fisheries management plans for priority species, (iv) fish or food product quality standards, (v) norms or standards for preventing infectious marine disease. People benefited from: (i) business development services, (ii) facilitation of access to credit, (iii) matching grant, (iv) facilitation to establish market linkages, (v) employment in new job roles in enterprises supported by the project.

Regional fisheries database designed as per advice of the SWIOFC Scientific Committee and the SWIOFC Working Parties, reflecting recommendations from past reports from them. Index on regional research and innovation program defined through a series of consultation among members states and the Scientific Committee of the SWIOFC, and approved by the SWIOFC within 12 months from the date of effectiveness. This indicator tracks the project's contribution to the drafting of new national-level governance documents for the fisheries sector that are submitted to appropriate decision-making authorities. These documents may include national biosecurity legislation (e.g., biosecurity bill), fisheries management plans for priority species, quality standards for fish or food products, norms or standards for the prevention of infectious marine diseases, and other relevant policy instruments. Ecosystem approach to Fisheries Management is defined as per FAO (2003) and FAO and World Bank (2017). Up to six priority fisheries from those already identified (which includes 8 species of reef fishes, 5 species of demersal fishes, 7 sea cucumbers, 5 species of shrimps, 2 small pelagic fishes, and 8 other species) will be prioritized by SWIOFC. Quarantine facilities are or will be located in airports and commercial harbors. The referral biosafety laboratory will be at Maniyafushi, with regional laboratories to be set up along with select quarantine facilities. The new formal jobs created for women by the SMEs supported by the project. This indicator measures the total amount of private capital (in USD million) that is mobilized as top-up to the value of the matching grants provided by the project toward the same investment/project supported by the grant. This includes private sector contributions such as equity investments, loans, self-financing / own-funds, third-party private co-financing, and private sector reinvestment. The indicator reflects the project's contribution to leveraging private sector investment, fostering financial sustainability and encouraging scale-up of project outcomes. The targets for this indicator are based on an expected minimum contribution from beneficiaries of 60% of the total investment per project. This indicator measures the percentage of beneficiary companies participating in the matching grant scheme that report a reduction in their operating costs as a result of project-supported interventions (e.g., equipment upgrades, adoption of more efficient technologies, improved processes, access to better inputs, capacity building). Operating costs may include but are not limited to energy/fuel costs, labour costs, maintenance costs, input/raw material costs, logistics/transport costs or other relevant operational expenses. The indicator reflects the project's contribution to enhancing business efficiency, improving competitiveness, and promoting financial sustainability among grant beneficiaries. The reduction in operating costs will be looked at as a percentage of the total cost and not in absolute terms in case an SME grows and naturally incurs more OCs. This indicator measures the number of individuals who, through project-supported activities under component 2, have improved their employment potential in the fisheries sector. This includes either participation in project-supported undergraduate education or project-supported basic and advanced skills training relevant to the sector. Results are disaggregated by gender to monitor benefits to females. Improved competitiveness will be measured for any enterprise, supported by the project with TA or matching grant, which shows progress in least 2 of the following sub-indicators: (i) improved ability to access credit from commercial banks; (ii) increase in gross revenue; (iii) percent reduction of input raw materials or cost of energy per unit of gross revenue earnt. This indicator measures the project's contribution (through financing) to the establishment and implementation of new standard protocols/standard operating procedures (SOP) and methodologies for fisheries-related quarantine facilities and biosafety laboratories, namely: Plant/Animal Import Control SOP, Plant/Animal Inspection SOP, Plant/Animal Pest Risk Assessment SOP, Export Control Certification Protocol, Plant/Animal Health Certification Protocols, Plant/Animal Disease Surveillance and Early Detection Protocols, Laboratory Biosafety Protocols, Laboratory Diagnostic Protocols. A SOP or a methodology will be considered “implemented” when the relevant agency is actively using it as demonstrated by the reporting requirements contained within it. The new formal jobs created for women by the SMEs supported by the project. Ecosystem approach to Fisheries Management is defined as per FAO (2003) and FAO and World Bank (2017). Up to six priority fisheries from those already identified (which includes 8 species of reef fishes, 5 species of demersal fishes, 7 sea cucumbers, 5 species of shrimps, 2 small pelagic fishes, and 8 other species) will be prioritized by SWIOFC. This indicator measures progress in adopting a systematic approach to fisheries management, in line with the Ecosystem Approach to Fisheries (EAF). The project will support the strengthening of SWIOFC's capacity to enhance national fisheries management capacities in the region, in line with EAF principles. This will be achieved by promoting evidence-based decision-making, integrating ecological, social, and economic considerations, encouraging stakeholder participation, and supporting adaptive management. Improved competitiveness will be measured for any enterprise, supported by the project with TA or matching grant, which shows progress in least 2 of the following sub-indicators: (i) improved ability to access credit from commercial banks; (ii) increase in gross revenue; (iii) percent reduction of input raw materials or cost of energy per unit of gross revenue earnt.

With each completion of a training program, the PMU traces the employability of the students. From the survey conducted to see the satisfaction of the employers within 6 months of the graduation of the students, all the 73 employer's surveyed, who have hired the graduates, highlighted that they are very satisfied with the theoretical knowledge, practical skills and overall performance of the students. This indicator has been achieved. Youths that won the Business Pitch Competition and received financial assistance to implement their business ideas have benefitted from Business Development services. The PMU has been providing Business Development Services to the Pitch Up winners in the review, evaluation, and in the implementation stage. During the review stages, financial plans and business proposals were reviewed, and advice was provided in the areas of improvement. During the implementation phase, the teams were provided assistance and support in the areas of business registration and bank account opening. During the Entrepreneurship Development Training Program for MEERY Grants for Micro Businesses, a total of 428 individuals participated. Physical training sessions were conducted in ADDU and Kulhuduffushi City, where a combined total of 267 individuals attended. This indicator has been achieved. Training was conducted by dividing to 3 batches. 56 participants altogether completed the training of which the majority of the participants were female: 31 female and 25 male. The target for this indicator has been achieved, with a total of 137 National Competency Standards developed and revised under the project. A total of 60 new National Competency Standards across ICT, Fisheries and Agriculture, Tourism, and Tourism-related Construction sectors has been developed, approved and endorsed by the respective Sector Councils. Similarly, 60 existing standards has also been revised by the consultancy firm and endorsed by the Sector Councils. A new standard of Strata Community Management Standards at Level 3 and 4 has been developed and endorsed. This indicator has been achieved. By June 2020, three labor market surveys focused on project priority sectors were conducted with the assistance of international and local consultants. The training needs analysis were carried out for the tourism sector, tourism related construction sector and ICT sector. The reports are published in the MEERY and MoHE websites. Upon a request from MOEDT, a training needs analysis was conducted for the agriculture sector. A local consultant was hired to developed the TNA and was sucessfully completed on 15 Dec 2021 The project's communication strategy and Gender Action Plan (GAP) have been approved and adopted, with the primary goal of raising awareness, providing opportunities, and educating youth while challenging negative perceptions of women in key sectors.

The development of competency standards is progressing smoothly. Till date 147 National Competency Standards have been developed/ revised under the project. The target for this indicator is progressing. As discussed during the previous mission, data collection for this indicator will be carried out segment-wise across the four major training programs implemented by the project. Each training program will be represented as a separate Employer Satisfaction Survey. To date, the PMU has conducted Employer Satisfaction Surveys for graduates of two major training programs: Skills for Resilient Workforce (SFRW) program delivered by private training providers, and the Community-Based Training (CBT) program. A total of 112 employers were surveyed across both programs. Similarly, data are being collected for graduates of the Skilling and Upskilling Program. This indicator has been achieved.

Across 3 rounds of surveys covering the SFRW, CBT, and SUP programs, 100% of surveyed employers reported being ‘satisfied’ or ‘very satisfied’ with MEERY graduates. To conduct the employer survey, the PMU surveyed a sample of employers who had hired graduates, using contact details obtained through the tracer. Coverage was limited, with responses from 52 unique employers, 119 employer-graduate matches, and 7% of MEERY graduates in jobs across certification-granting programs. There were multiple cases where one employer hired multiple graduates and was surveyed separately for each selected graduate. Employer non-response ranged from 10% for CBT to 50% for SUP. Youth-specific was available for SFRW and SUP, but it is unclear whether this applied to CBT. 20 of the 52 unique employers belonged to a priority sector (15 in tourism, 2 in construction, 1 in ICT, 1 in agriculture), while the remaining were either in non-priority sectors or could not be classified. With each completion of a training program, the PMU traces the employability of the students. From the survey conducted to see the satisfaction of the employers within 6 months of the graduation of the students, all the 73 employer's surveyed, who have hired the graduates, highlighted that they are very satisfied with the theoretical knowledge, practical skills and overall performance of the students. The target for this indicator has been achieved. With each completion of a training program, the PMU traces the employability of the students.

This target was achieved. Across 3 tracer surveys covering SFRW, CBT, and SUP graduates within 6 months of course completion, 56% of youth were employed (176 of 314 traced youth graduates) and 32% of female youth were employed (42 of 107 traced female youth graduates). A tracer survey was not conducted for FRYP. Tracer surveys aimed for a census approach, but coverage was limited: only 19.5% of total MEERY youth graduates (314 of 1,614) were traced. This reflected the wave-based timing of data collection, which excluded incomplete courses when surveys were administered, and likely attrition. Youth-specific data was derived by filtering data by age in contrast to ISRs which reported (higher) employment for all ages. Results could not be restricted to priority sectors or wage employment. The M&E Plan was unclear on whether the 25% female target referred to the employment rate of female youth graduates or their share among employed youth; the ICR used the former. The project implements a range of technical and vocational training programs aimed at enhancing youth employability by equipping them with relevant, in-demand skills. To date, two major programs:Skills for a Resilient Workforce (SFRW) and Community-Based Training (CBT) designed for skilling and upskilling have been completed and two training programs are ongoing; Skilling and Upskilling Program and Future Ready Youth Program. Among 965 graduates from private training providers under the SFRW program, 537 (132 females and 405 males) have secured employment. In the CBT program, 77 (20 females and 57 males) out of 97 graduates are employed. Under the Skilling and Upskilling Program, out of the 33 graduates 21(6 female, 15 male) are employed. The project implements a range of technical and vocational training programs designed to enhance youth employability by equipping them with relevant, in-demand skills. As of now, two programs (Skills for a Resilient Workforce (SFRW) and Community-Based Training (CBT)) designed for skilling and upskilling has been completed. Among the 965 graduates of the SFRW program, 537 (132 females and 405 males) have secured employment. In the CBT program, 68 (14 females and 54 males) out of 96 graduates are currently employed.

This target was achieved numerically. Business Pitch Competition (BPC): 24 businesses were registered of which 6 teams were owned and managed by women. Since 4 teams were terminated due to non-compliance with the grant agreement, the total number of businesses counted is 20. All BPC businesses were in priority sectors and project reported youth-specific numbers. Grants for Women-led Businesses: Approved for Funding: 144 (104 Female |40 Male) Business Registered: 144 New Businesses Registered: 125 New Business Registered (Youth): 65 New Business Registered (Female): 45 Fund Disbursed: 144 Grants for Tailoring Businesses: Approved for Funding: 94 (82 Female | 12 Male) Business Registered: 94 New Businesses Registered: 70 New Business Registered (Youth): 26 New Business Registered (Female): 19 Fund Disbursed: 94. It was not possible to disentangle which of the SGP beneficiaries registered in priority sectors and which did not, but the project reported youth-specific numbers. This indicator has been overachieved. 24 businesses were registered under the BPC Grant of which 6 teams were owned and managed by women. 4 teams who received partial disbursement have been terminated due to non-compliance with the grant agreement. As a result, the total number of businesses currently in the program is 20.

It has played a key role in empowering young individuals, fostering resilience, and effectively preparing them for long-term success. This target was achieved. By June 2020, three labor market surveys focused on project priority sectors - tourism sector, construction, and ICT sector services were complete. In December 2021, after agriculture was added as a priority sector, an additional training needs analysis was completed. This target was achieved. A National Skills Development Master Plan was developed and the Maldives National Qualification Framework was revised. The 21st Century Skills Development Strategy along with Strategic Plan and Action Plan developed and approved in December 2025. This target was not achieved. Data collection for this indicator was carried out across 3 major training programs implemented by the project: SFRW, CBT, SUP. The project was too close to closure to conduct an employer survey for FRYP, the last skills program delivered through MEERY. This indicator was partially achieved. Beneficiary satisfaction surveys were administered at the completion of skills training and workshops, typically along with the tracer survey. Out of the 461 respondents to the surveys, 337 (73.1%) expressed satisfaction with the overall implementation of the training programs. Satisfaction differed significantly across training programs: SFRW (63%), Waste-to-Wealth (58%), Advanced Certificate in ICT (100%), CBT (93%), Soft Skills Workshops (86%), SUP (87%). No data was collected on the satisfaction of beneficiaries with the BDS services provided. It is unclear why this indicator was placed under Component 4 as it relates to Component 3. This target was achieved. A total of 135 National Competency Standards were developed and revised under the project (69 revised, 66 new standards). In 2021, 7 new standards were developed and 6 existing standards were revised. This effort was substantially scaled up in 2023, with 60 new standards developed and 60 existing standards revised. Each standard was delivered as a comprehensive package, including the standard document, logbook, and resource book. In 2024, the Maldives National University (MNU) was contracted to develop Strata Community Management Standards at Levels 4 and 5. These standards, together with the supporting learning materials, have now been developed and approved. Additional standards or course materials developed for Entrepreneurship and Personal Development and Waste-to-Wealth appear not to have been included in the indicator total, but were delivered through MEERY. All the counted standards were in priority sectors. This indicator was achieved. 11 new ICT-related standards were developed and endorsed; and 12 ICT related courses were developed (Level 3 to Diploma level) for Maldives Polytechnic. An e-Learning platform was also developed and launched. Other related actions included updates to ICT equipment, establishment of a student data management system at Maldives Polytechnic MalE, and computer skills training for Maldives Polytechnic staff. This target was partially achieved. The total number was not achieved, but the share of females was reached. On the Skilling Objective, the project trained 2,434 youth (888 females, 1,269 males) through various skilling programs conducted under the project. On the Entrepreneurship Objective, there were a range of beneficiaries: support for 40 beneficiaries through BPC (9 females, 31 males); support for 285 beneficiaries through SGPs (231 females, 54 males); access to market through Authentic Maldives Addu Outlet (216 vendors total, 124 females, 92 males) and Thoddoo Outlet (181 vendors total, 101 females and 80 males) and 5 SME vendors (3 female, 2 male). The decrease in the number for this indicator is because the number of expo participants have been deducted as direct beneficiaries. The counts for Entrepreneurship includes beneficiaries outside the youth age range, and priority sector disaggregation is not fully available. This target was achieved. A total of 139 trainers, instructors and assessors were trained, albeit not necessarily always specifically for revised standards. In 2021, 57 master trainers, who are responsible for training trainers, were trained, focused on entrepreneurship and personal initiative, and 16 master trainers were trained in 2022 on the Waste-to-Wealth standard. 29 master assessor trainers were trained to train assessors. In 2025, to more directly address the shortage of trained national assessors, together with the Maldives National Skills Development Authority, MEERY conducted a national assessor training program in MalE for 37 assessors. The project implements a range of technical and vocational training programs aimed at enhancing youth employability by equipping them with relevant, in-demand skills. To date, two major programs:Skills for a Resilient Workforce (SFRW) and Community-Based Training (CBT) designed for skilling and upskilling have been completed and two training programs are ongoing; Skilling and Upskilling Program and Future Ready Youth Program. Among 965 graduates from private training providers under the SFRW program, 537 (132 females and 405 males) have secured employment. In the CBT program, 77 (20 females and 57 males) out of 97 graduates are employed. Under the Skilling and Upskilling Program, out of the 33 graduates 21(6 female, 15 male) are employed. - Assessor Training Plan and a Training of Trainers (ToT) manual is developed and officially launched. - 57 master trainers trained under entrepreneurship module and 16 under waste to wealth module - 29 master trainers trained to conduct training for assessors - 20 assessors trained across 22 different occupational areas in National Assessors Training in Male’. - MNSDA is planning to conduct consolidated National Assessor Training in November 2025 in MalE City to train 20 ToTs. To date, a total of 102 trainers and assessors have been trained directly through the project. To further strengthen assessment and training capacities, a local consultant developed a detailed training plan for assessors and a comprehensive training manual for trainers and trained 29 master assessors trainers. This manual officially launched in December 2024. Earlier, in 2021, 57 master trainers completed a Training of Trainers (ToT) program focused on entrepreneurship and personal initiative. Additionally, in 2022, 16 master trainers were trained on the Waste-to-Wealth standard developed under the project.To address the shortage of trained National Assessors, the project, in collaboration with MNSDA, is planning “Assessor Training Programe. In this programe, 55 new assessors will be trained. The target distribution includes 25 assessors in MalE, 15 in the South, and 15 in the North. The training will focus on specific trades and will cover Levels 3, 4, and 5. ???????The progress in this indicator is notable. This indicator has been achieved. - 11 new ICT-related standards are developed endorsed. - 12 ICT related courses developed (Level 3 to Diploma level) for Maldives Polytechnic - E-learning platform developed and launched - ICT equipment, computer lab furniture and computer systems provided to Polytechnic campuses and Technical Institutes in Alifushi and Ha. Dhidhdhoo. - ICT equipment provided to Polytechnic Common Room Male’ Campus. - A Student Data Management System established at Maldives Polytechnic Male’ Campus. - Computer skills training for Maldives Polytechnic staff focused on basic applications and intermediate concepts of modern teaching were conducted - ICT equipment being supplied to regional Job Centers under the National Career Service in four locations: K. Male’, Hdh.Kulhudhuffushi, S. Hithadhoo. This indicator has been achieved. By project closing, a total of 58,991 Maldivians (24,076 females and 34,912 males) and 4,153 employers were registered on the National Career Service (NCS) Job Center Portal. Among those registered, 8,896 (3,418 females and 5,475 males) were seeking employment through the platform. This target was achieved. The Gender Action Plan (GAP) and communication strategy have been approved and adopted, with the primary goal of raising awareness, providing opportunities, and educating youth while challenging negative perceptions of women in key sectors. This target was partially achieved. 2,434 youth were trained (81 % of target of 3,000). Of these, 1,614 youth graduated from certificate-granting courses of Level 3 or higher in the Maldives National Qualifications Framework. The breakdown by program is: SFRW (1,298), CBT (97), Advanced Certificate in IT (11), Waste-to-Wealth (34), SUP (102), and FRYP (72). These numbers were reported specifically for youth and all courses delivered were in priority sectors. 820 youth participants also completed one-off soft skill workshops, which were not sector-specific but focused on foundational employability. This target was not achieved. This project has equipped 2,434 beneficiaries with valuable skills and knowledge, underscoring its significant contribution to youth development as per PDO Indicator 2. The rationale behind the target number is unclear. The indicator has been reported since 2021 when it was introduced as a Corporate Results Indicator. A higher number was reported in some previous ISRs which counted people who had registered on the Job Center Portal. This target has been achieved. Training was conducted in 3 batches, with 56 participants altogether completing the training. The majority of the participants were female: 31 female and 25 male. Youth and priority sector disaggregation are not applicable for this indicator. This target has been achieved. A total of 494 youth benefitted from BDS services against a target of 100. This comprises 428 individuals who participated in the Entrepreneurship Development Training Program directly delivered by the MoED PMU under the SGP, covering business registration, financial management, and business plan development, with physical sessions conducted in Addu and Kulhuduffushi City; and 66 youth, including BPC beneficiaries who received business development support from the MoED PMU throughout the grant cycle, including business plan and financial plan review, advice on areas of improvement, and assistance with business registration and bank account opening and SME Hub vendors. The priority sector disaggregation is not applicable. This target was not achieved, but this was because the BPC was repurposed into the SGP and not reflective of a shortcoming in implementation. The BPC was completed as planned, but a second one was not held. Instead, two small-grant programs targeting women-led business and tailoring business were successfully completed, which provided smaller grants to a larger number of beneficiaries. This indicator has been overachieved. 24 businesses were registered under the BPC Grant of which 6 teams were owned and managed by women. 4 teams who received partial disbursement have been terminated due to non-compliance with the grant agreement. As a result, the total number of businesses currently in the program is 20.

Male’, Hdh.Kulhudhuffushi, S. Hithadhoo. The target for this indicator has been successfully achieved. In order to conduct a comprehensive assessment of employer satisfaction with the trainees, the PMU is presently undertaking a tracer study. This study includes an employer satisfaction survey designed to capture employer perspectives and evaluate the impact of the training on the skills and knowledge acquired by the graduates. To date, the PMU has surveyed 73 employers who have hired graduates from various training programs implemented under the project. The findings of the survey reveal a high level of employer satisfaction with the performance of these graduates. Employers have particularly emphasized notable improvements in soft skills, technical competencies, problem-solving abilities, and teamwork. This indicator has been achieved. A robust eLearning platform has developed at Maldives Polytechnic to facilitate the development of digital skills through ICT-based teaching and learning materials. 12 new ICT courses, ranging from Certificate Level 3 to Diploma Level have been developed. Of these 12, courses have been offered in at least 5. This indicator has been achieved. By June 2020, three labor market surveys focused on project priority sectors were conducted with the assistance of international and local consultants. The training needs analysis were carried out for the tourism sector, tourism related construction sector and ICT sector. The reports are published in the MEERY and MoHE websites. Upon a request from MOEDT, a training needs analysis was conducted for the agriculture sector.

2026IDA CreditMinistry of Environment and Energy RWMF has the capacity to process and&nbsp;dispose&nbsp;46 metric tons of solid waste per day although it is not fully operational. Since the establishment of the actual baseline and related reporting during the early stage of the project, the EPA and MRC have not produced any reports for the monitoring activities that have taken place up since 2014. It is unlikely the project will achieve the indicator on no spillage in participating inhabited islands by end target as the full operationalization of the RSWM system will go beyond the project closing date. The RWMF is built with all critical elements and test run in May 2016. However, there is a delay in commencing full operation, as the facility has not been handed over to WAMCO. Monitoring activities are continuing in three of the four atolls. Only few island communities&nbsp;in the fourth atoll are participating in community-based monitoring. A total of 12 islands including B.Maalhos, B.Thulhaadhoo, B.Kendhoo, Lh.Naifaru, Lh.Hinnavaru, N.Manadhoo, R.Kinolhas, R.Rasmaadhoo, R.Rasgetheemu, R.Maduvvari, R.Ungoofaaru and R.Dhuvaafaru&nbsp;are implementing&nbsp;their respective IWMPs. The target of at least 18 islands operational out of the 22 was not met. Some of the islands that commenced implementing their IWMPs in the past have stalled implementation, mostly due to lack of commitment by the island councils and in some cases due to challenges in transferring wastes from households to the&nbsp;IWMPs and/or lack of labor to operate the IWMCs.&nbsp; Landing craft is procured by January 2016. However, transfer activities are yet to commence, except transfers undertaken for test running of the RSWM system. Completion of the construction of the two other waste vessels have been significantly delayed. Only 50% of the indicator will likely to be met by end of the project period. B.Maalhos, B.Thulhaadhoo, B.Kendhoo, Lh.Naifaru, Lh.Hinnavaru, N.Manadhoo, R.Kinolhas, R.Rasmaadhoo, R.Rasgetheemu, R.Maduvvari, R.Ungoofaaru and R.Dhuvaafaru,&nbsp;are operational. The target of at least 18 islands out of the 22 was not met. Some of the islans that commenced implementing their IWMPs in the past have stalled implementation, mostly due to lack of commitment by the island councils and in some cases due to challenges in transferring wastes from households to the&nbsp;IWMPs and/or lack of labor to operate the IWMCs.&nbsp; Six monitoring visits for the implementation of the ESMP for the RWMF were conducted. Six reports were submitted by the consultant by end of the reporting period exceeding the target by 300%. Another monitoring visit is currently underway and will be reported by June 15, 2016. Target Achieved in 2013. Financial support from the Climate Change Trust Fund to the BEM program has commenced from June 2015. Target Achieved. The NGIS is open to all government agencies since 2015. Households in 55% of the islands are conducting waste segregation, recycling&nbsp;and composting. However, the off-island collection of residual waste is still not taking place as the RSWM system is not in operation. Except for one island out of 22 supported, all other islands have waste spilling out of the IWMCs and will unlikely achieve the final target by June 30, 2016. As of the last mission in February/March 2016 it was confirmed that all 45 islands of the project area have their IWMPs endorsed by the Island Councils and approved by EPA. A total of 60&nbsp;community members in all inhabited islands have been trained on SWM and exceeded end year target. The&nbsp;60 included at least one member from 45 inhabited islands in the region. 44000-P104743World BankInternational Development AssociationGovernment of MaldivesInternational Development

Loan Repayment in March Month of 2026IDA CreditMinistry of Finance and TreasuryNational Social Protection AgencyMaldives Pension Administration Office All qualitative milestones have been achieved.&nbsp;Since the inception of the project 476 targeted information sessions have been conducted and 30,844 people have attended the sessions. The information sessions have been conducted in atolls, resorts, schools and colleges etc. In addition to information sessions, the project&nbsp;has leveraged mass media such as TV and Radio talk shows (217 times since the inception) and other channels such as newspaper articles, leaflets and sponsorship of events to raise public awareness were also carried out. Its website regularly publishes key indicators of the pension program (http://www.pension.gov.mv/stats/)&nbsp;and&nbsp;the MRPS members can access to their Retirement Saving Account online. All qualitative milestones have been achieved, including: (1)&nbsp;by end of 2012 System analysis for MIS carried out and standard operating procedures developed; (2) by end of 2013 &nbsp;Pilot of the target mechanism to Single Parent Allowance to new applicants initiated; (3) by&nbsp;June of 2015&nbsp;New MIS systems and processes fully implemented &amp; Relevant staf trained &amp; Strategy for an integrated national social protection system developed.&nbsp;The strategy&nbsp;for an&nbsp;integrated&nbsp;national social protection system is&nbsp;largely reflected in the Social Protection Act (2014), though the regulations for&nbsp;implementing all relevant social protection programs are&nbsp;still&nbsp;in the process of finalization. &nbsp; All milestones have been achieved, including (1) Disability Act enacted; (2)&nbsp;Proposal for disability coding and administration developed; (3)&nbsp;Disability administration provisions piloted and being rolled out; (4) relevant staff trained After evaluating&nbsp;various&nbsp;targeting options, a targeting method involving both cross-verifying income&nbsp;and asset ownership&nbsp;against administrative database and a Proxy-Means-Test&nbsp;poverty score calculation was adopted. The&nbsp;processes for implementation of&nbsp; this targeting method was piloted and applied to new Single Parent Allowance applicants. The Government has decided to&nbsp;apply this method to&nbsp;all electricity subsidy beneficiaries.&nbsp; All milestones have been achieved, including (1) Principles of accounting and reconciliation defined; (2)&nbsp;All data for calculation of Recognition Bonds collected; (3)&nbsp;Format of account statements agreed and first round of reports piloted, including RB balances; (4)&nbsp;All Recognition Bonds accounts calculated and fully credited; (5)&nbsp;Individual account statements issued to all members of the scheme; (6)&nbsp;On-line access to individual accounts and complaints procedure fully implemented. Members can register at MPAO website, which provides online access to registered member&#39;s Retirement Saving Account balance and&nbsp;contribution history. All qualitative milestones have been achieved. As originally envisioned, MPAO has became financially self-sustained beginning in 2015. It has also&nbsp;reduced its administration fee collected from the MRPS members&nbsp;while has managed to add disability insuance benefit free of cost to the MRPS members. &nbsp; All milestones have been achieved. It has been challenging to introduce&nbsp;more and new investment instruments in Maldives&#39; capital market. &nbsp; The Government has paid out the pension rights of all public employees retired between January 2011 and March 2014 as defined by the respective Recognition Bonds to their Retirement Saving Accounts at the time of retirement. The number of unique accounts opened by MPAO has surpassed the target of 85,000 and is nearly 55% of working age population. Mechanisms for payroll generation from PAS were defined by end of 2010. The HR/payroll modules have been gradually rolled out to Male-based agencies. In September 2012, there were only about 110 separate agencies in Male. But over the course of the project a number of new Male-based agencies have been created. As of April 30, 2015 there are 124 separate Male&#39; based agencies and the HR/payroll module roll out was 95% completed.&nbsp;The remaining six business areas are to be rolled out by May 31, 2015. In addition to Male-based agencies, 4 non-Male based agencies have been covered. All milestones have been achieved except that amendments to relevant laws to unify parallel pension system. The decision to harmonize double pensions is pending at the President&#39;s Office while the proposal on harmonization options has been discussed. &nbsp; &nbsp; MPAO has developed in-house phased withdrawal provisions for MRPS pensioners.&nbsp;The options on annuitization have been explored and discussed by the MPAO Board. However after evaluating&nbsp;various annuitization options against the benefit and the cost to MRPS members as well as the regulatory environment,&nbsp;the MPAO Board has decided not to change to annuitization in the short&nbsp;run and the policy will be re-evaluated every two years. &nbsp; The indicator is defined as the total number of MRPS individual RSA. The beneficiaries of OABP constitute a subset of the MRPS members. Note that the beneficiaries of social assistance programs (e.g. Disability Allowance) are not included. All milestones have been achieved, including (1) Reports for OABP refined and MRPS compliance indicators defined; (2) compliance team trained; (3)&nbsp;All compliance reports designed and tested; (4)&nbsp;All compliance reports generated and follow up procedurs operational; (5)&nbsp;MPAO compliance team carries out onsite regular and special inspections; and (6)&nbsp;MPAO targets inspections on high risk compliance cases. The coverage of&nbsp;the Old Age Basic Pension (OABP) benefit has reached 100% of 65+ population 44000-P163939World BankInternational Development AssociationREPUBLIC OF MALDIVESInternational Development AssociationMinistry of Finance Planned start date of the activityActual start date of the activityPlanned end date of the activityActual end date of the activityThe World BankAhsan Tehsin+1-202-473-1000atehsin@worldbank.orgpic@worldbank.orgThe World Bank, 1818 H Street, NW, Washington, DC 20433 USA MALDIVES Male 4.17521 73.509163 FY17 - Water SupplyFY17 - SanitationFY17 - HealthFY17 - Housing ConstructionFY17 - Other Public AdministrationGenderDisease ControlHealth System StrengtheningMitigationHealth Systems and PoliciesUrban Water and SanitationHealth System StrengtheningAdaptationDisaster Risk ManagementDisaster Risk ReductionHealth System StrengtheningPandemic ResponseDisease ControlDisaster Risk ManagementDisaster PreparednessHealth Systems and Policies 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 0.00 10000000.00 10000000.00 0.00 0.00 5000000Total Commitment in July Month of 2019IDA CreditMinistry of Finance 5000000Total Commitment in July Month of 2019IDA CreditMinistry of Finance 5012094Total Disbursement in March Month of 2020IDA CreditMinistry of Finance 5012094Total Disbursement in March Month of 2020IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -14992Total Interest Repayment in August Month of 2020IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -20288Total Interest Repayment in February Month of 2021IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -19746Total Interest Repayment in August Month of 2021IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -19377Total Interest Repayment in February Month of 2022IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -18377Total Interest Repayment in August Month of 2022IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -18465Total Interest Repayment in February Month of 2023IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -18577Total Interest Repayment in August Month of 2023IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -18354Total Interest Repayment in February Month of 2024IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -18282Total Interest Repayment in August Month of 2024IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -18467Total Interest Repayment in February Month of 2025IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -18923Total Interest Repayment in August Month of 2025IDA CreditMinistry of Finance -19064Total Interest Repayment in February Month of 2026IDA CreditMinistry of Finance 44000-P179286World BankInternational Development AssociationRepublic of MaldivesRepublic of MaldivesInternational Development AssociationMinistry of Finance Planned start date of the activityActual start date of the activityPlanned end date of the activityActual end date of the activityThe World BankSydnella E.

Supporting the capacity will include convening, organizing and facilitating joint negotiation stance (described in a joint draft) prior to each IOTC annual meeting. MoFA has organized and supported the G16 Coastal States Meeting on Allocation Principles at Seychelles in February 2018 prior to the IOTC Annual Session in May 2018. A second meeting of the G16 Coastal States was organized at Cape Town, South Africa on October 13-14, 2018 (following the SWIOFC meeting at Cape Town, to optimize expenses), and a third meeting at Male, Maldives on January 13-14, 2019.&nbsp;Maldives is actively working with like minded countries to schedule a similar support ahead of the upcoming IOTC annual meeting. The planned events of March 2020 could not yet take place due to COVID-19 pandemic. However, in early 2021, Maldives organized several rounds of meetings with&nbsp;G16 Coastal States for reparation for the IOTC meetings (organized virtually) in April 2021. In the IOTC meeting Maldives sponsored proposals for better management and limiting quota for yellowfin tuna. Later, during the IOTC plenary, Maldives and EU moved joint proposals that were taken up for consideration. Since he IOTC Plenary, Maldives have pursued active dialogues with several members states of IOTC in support of thei proposal. In 2022, Maldives hosted the G-16 countries to pursue joint negotiation stances. <p&gt;Achieved the revised indicator (100 percent). The operational capacity for production and supply of fingerlings is established as:&nbsp;(i) the quarantine facility is now fully capable of processing imports of at least 20,000 fingerlings per month, as has beendemonstrated during the 3 batches of imports, for a total of 57,000 grouper fingerlings&nbsp;where quarantine was completed successfully; (ii) construction of a hatchery with all necessary installations including biosecurity measures had been completed at Maniyafushi island with a capacity of producing a total of at least 150,000 fingerlings per month, and, (iii) 30 requisite operational staff with needed qualification have been trained in the process of hatchery operations, that has created a skill base for the larger operation of the multispecies hatchery under construction and likely to be operational by December 2023. Overall, the project has already produced or imported about 200,000 fingerlings to supply to grow-out farms.</p&gt; <p&gt;Partly achieved the original indicator (7 percent). This revised indicator replaced the original indicator of &quot;Production of fingerlings by the hatchery&quot; (target number 2,000,000). The production of fingerling in the country has been about 140,000. The shortfall is mainly caused by the delay in establishing the multispecies hatchery, owing mainly to the COVID-19 pandemic, but which is now under construction through a private sector concession, and is expected to be operational by November 2023, and therefore, fingerling supplies would resume in March 2024 and the&nbsp;original target is likely to be achieved during 2024-25, with a delay of about 18-21 months. Meanwhile, the current small facility at Maniyafushi will continue production.&nbsp;</p&gt; <p&gt;Achieved revised target (100 percent). As per the IOTC recommendations, 5 percent of the fishing trips are to be monitored. To comply with this requirement, 15 electronic observer systems were installed, tested, used, and software integration achieved with theMoFMRA fisheries information system, and used to observe the type of catch and fishing efforts. This is also integrated with the locational information available real-time from the vessel locating devices installed in the marine (tuna) fishing fleet.&nbsp;</p&gt; <p&gt;Partly achieved the original target (39.8 percent). The&nbsp;revised indicator was introduced at the restructuring in May 2022 replacing the original indicator &quot;Fishing trips covered with Electronic observation&quot; (target - 6,000 trips). Against this original target only 2,385 trips were covered with electronic observation. Although the electronic observer systems were installed in February-March 2020, the testing and&nbsp;commissioning of the equipment could only be completed in late 2021 due to COVID-19 pandemic. Software integration and optimization took additional time. However, all electronic observer systems were fully operational and the target of 5 percent of fishing trips to be covered under electronic observation will be achieved in 2024. Therefore, the revised target did not indicate any reduction of scope of the project activity.&nbsp;</p&gt; <p&gt;Exceeded the original target (267 percent) and achieved the revised target (100 percent). The Fisheries Act was enacted in 2019. Pursuant to the 2019 Fisheries Act, eight&nbsp;Regulations were&nbsp;drafted, consulted with a wide spectrum of stakeholders, finalzed, adopted, and notified during August-October 2020. Pursuant to both the Fisheries Act and the eight notifications, seven fisheries sector management plans were&nbsp;drafted, consulted with a wide spectrum of stakeholders, finalized, adopted, and notified by December 2020. Additionally, six other regulations were drafted and stakeholder consultations were undertaken in 2021-2022. These are not counted as finalization and notification is yet to take place.&nbsp;</p&gt; Was to be completed in May 2022 but there was a delay of about 4 months. The current fleet of 640 vessels is expected to be reached by September 2022. Additionally, MoFMRA is now bringing smaller vessels under MCS. <p&gt;Achieved this revised target (100 percent).&nbsp;The Mariculture Research and Development facility is completed and operational as: (i) all requisite infrastructure and equipment for carrying the intended research and training of the target groups are in place; (ii) the research program was successful in establishment of culture practices of at least two native or endemic fish species; (iii) the commercial hatching and production processes for at least two fish species was demonstrated; and (iv) the requisite number ofqualified and experienced staff are in place to operate the science program, to operate&nbsp;the facility and to conduct training program for the target groups for future mariculture development in Maldives.</p&gt; <p&gt;Partially achieved target for the original indicator: &quot;Viability demonstrated for out-grower farms of sea cucumber (or other species equivalent in value)&quot; (target - increase in number of such farms by 150 over the baseline of 100). The baseline of 100 sea cucumber farms were financed by another donor-financed project in Maldives (Mariculture Enterprise Development Project) increased to 115, but all these farms stopped during the COVID-19 period. As a result the planned expansion could not take off. However, going forward the fingerlings would be produced by the multispecies hatchery under construction, and the MoFMRA will encourage private sector to take up farming of sea cucumbers using clear commercial practices. The MMRDF is working on improving culture techniques of two varieties of sea cucumber so that the technical concerns about using imported sea cucumber fingerlings can be resolved. The dropping of this indicator at restructuring indicates a reduction of scope of Component B, or at least an acknowledgement that the originally intended development of sea cucumber mariculture will be delayed by at least two years.&nbsp;</p&gt; Cumulative targets. Price data will be the based on the regular market surveys (Hong Kong and Singapore). Hugely impacted by the COVID-19 pandemic, as even the grow-out farms who completed the first batch of production could not be supplied with fingerlings and fish feed as imports were stopped since August 2020. The project (Component B) is obviously significantly behind. As per the&nbsp;workplans prepared by MoFMRA at the MTR, significant improvement was expected between July 2021 and June 2022, part of which did not take place as import of fingerlings could not resume. However, with production of fingerlings restarting at the hatchery at Maniyafushi Research-scale hatchery, the target is on track to be achieved prior to the closing date.&nbsp;MoFMRA is taking steps t maximize the stocking so that the target is achieved (even after the project closing date, in which case the residual expenditure will be financed by the MoFMRA). <p&gt;Achieved the revised target (100&nbsp;percent). To enable inspection under the MCS regime, state-of-art vessel locating devices capable of two-way communication and real-time data transfer to the MoFMRA fisheries information system was installed and commissioned in all marine (tuna) fishing vessels in Maldives. The IOTC resolutions require all tuna fishing vessels above 24 meter length to be inspected under MCS. In Maldives, all vessels above 18 meter length are covered now. This is now part of the licensing requirement, renewed annually. Note that 37 of these 680 vessels have not resumed fishing since the COVID-19 outbreak. [Note that even if the achievement was 680 in comparison to the target of 670, this should be taken only as 100 percent achievement rather than exceeding the target, as the intent was to cover all tuna fishing vessels above 18 meter in length, which is the case here).</p&gt; <p&gt;Achieved the original target (100 percent). The original target of 1,100 vessels were the estimated number of tuna fishing vessels in 2016 (when there was no licensing regime). Over a period of time, owners of multiple small vessels replaced those with larger vessels. The estimate came down to 732 in 2018 after a survey. By end of 2021, when all vessel owners were contacted, the estimate was 670. Note that this reduction of target did not reduce the scope of the project. The original intent was to cover all marine (tuna) fishing vessels. The same intent was there at the restructuring. No marine (tuna) fishing vessel is excluded.&nbsp;</p&gt; <p&gt;The MoFMRA has also started installing and commissioning appropriate and relatively low-cost vessel locating devices on about 200 smaller vessels engagd in fishing. These vessels are not counted as achievement as the original intent did not cover the reef fishing vessels, and where no IOTC or other international inspection compliance requirements apply.&nbsp;&nbsp;</p&gt; <p&gt;Substantially achieved the&nbsp;revised target (95 percent). The project supported initiation pilot grow-out of grouper mariculture in 2019, after the 2017-18 period was used to train interested household level entrepreneurs, and to secure procurement of mariculture cages, fingerlings and fish feed. The initial batch of production was ready for sale by May-June 2020, but could be sold onlyin August 2020 due to the COVID-19 disruptions. The second batch of production was also completed for 5 of the 19 pilot farms. Remaining pilot farms are continuing restocking with the supply of fingerlings from the research-scale hatchery established and operating at Maniyafushi.&nbsp;Viability of the grow-out farms was demonstrated by auction of produce, where the sale prices received generated substantial profit to the household level enterprises. Of the 20 targeted pilot farms, one farm could not be supported due to ownership issues discovered by the Island Council, who advised against continuing supporting this particular farm.&nbsp;</p&gt; <p&gt;Partly achieved the original target (9.5 percent). The original target of establishing 200 grow-out farms was not achieved&nbsp;due to the impacts of the&nbsp;the COVID-19 pandemic. In addition to the pilot farms, 135 additional grow-out farms are ready to be rolled out subject to ensuring the supply of fingerlings. As per the MoFMRA plans and budgets, the construction of the multispecies hatchery at Maanaagalaa Island will be completed in November 2023, supply of fingerlings will start from March 2024, and the original target of establishing production and sale from 200 grow-out farms will be achieved by December 2024. Additionally, the MoFMRA plans to roll-out another 400 grow-out farms by incentivizing small and medium private sector enterprises in the next 3 years.&nbsp;</p&gt; Cumulative targets. Number of grow-out farms (at household level) that become viable (when annual operating cost is not more than 70 percent of the value of annual production). The first batch of production is expected in June 2020 from the up to 19 pilots starting in September 2019. The Year 3 targets (20 farms) can be met as production in the 19 farms have started. The major portion of the end target is linked to operation of the multispecies hatchery and can be realized only in Years 4 and 5 of the Project.&nbsp;&nbsp;&nbsp; The project had ramped up additional support and ensured that the first batch of production was auctioned and brought a good price in the&nbsp;market in August 2020.&nbsp;However, production stopped after August 2020 due to the COVID-19 pandemic induced disruption to the import of fish fingerlings, feed and cages.&nbsp; MoFMRA has prepared a workplan to achieve the targets within the remaining time in the project. The workplan includes: (a) expansion of the targeted number of grow-out farms to 600 instead of 250 as agreed earlier (compared to original target of 200); (b) partnering with implemented private sector companies (who in turn will involve households) including small and medium enterprises and the companies who were given lease rights over 54 islands by MoFMRA for development of agroforestry, horticulture and hydroponics - for delivering 80 percent of the target grow-ot farms; (c) continue with the 19 household farms who have already completed their respective first of production, and are waiting for inputs for starting new batch of production; (d) involve grouper capture fisherpersons or households for weaning them away from capture fishery; (e) maximize import of fingerlings by improved efficiency of the quarantine facility; and (f) incentivizing the concessionaire to be selected for the multispecies hatchery to start production of grouper fingerlings as early as possible to facilitate the grow-out farming.&nbsp; The pilot 19 farms are now restocked (from the limited supply of the research-scale hatchery at Maniyafushi) for second or third round of production.&nbsp;Viability of the first set of grow-out farms was already demonstrated by auction of produce. Cumulative targets. IOTC undertakes a periodic (or annual) assessment of compliance of the countries to the updated IOTC resolutions for management of tuna fishery. IOTC Compliance Committee meeting&nbsp;was delayed in 2021, and the current ratings reflect the status of calendar year 2020.&nbsp; <p&gt;Exceeded original target (215 percent) and revised targets (107 percent). The project beneficiaries included: (i) 629 household level enterprises, including 57 women-owned ones, who received support from the project; (ii) 153 persons including 32 women employed in activities and implementing units of&nbsp;the project. This estimate does not include (i) professionals who receive enhanced skill training from the project; (ii) community members who receive capacity building through substantial training, or through direct exposure to the project activities; and (iii) persons employed in value chains created by the activities supported by the project.</p&gt; <p&gt;Achieved the revised target introduced at restructuring (100 percent).&nbsp;As per agreed during restructuring, the following were completed: (i) all processes for commercial supply of inputs required for mariculture (cages, fingerlings, and fish feed) are established; (ii) a small-scale hatchery is established, operational, producing and supplying grouper&nbsp; fingerlings to pilot&nbsp;out-grower farms, while the construction of a larger multispecies hatchery is underway through a concession to a private joint venture firm; (iii) a quarantine facility is established and fully operational to facilitate supplementary import of fingerlings; (iv) another 135 mariculture cage farms are ready to start production once supply of fingerling resumes when the multispecies hatchery is operational; and (v) 19 compared to the target 20&nbsp;out-grower farms have completed one batch of production and sold the harvested fish products at a profit, 5 of these farms did it twice&nbsp; - showing mariculture is now established and operational in Maldives.</p&gt; <p&gt;Partly achieved the original target (4.1 percent). At restructuring this indicator replaced the original indicator &quot;Value of production from mariculture supported by the project&quot; (target - US$9 million). Only a small part of the target for the&nbsp;original indicator was achieved (the total value of production so far is US$365,000). At&nbsp;restructuring, it was evident thatdue to impacts of the COVID-19 pandemic (delay&nbsp;in establishing the multispecies hatchery, stoppage of import of fingerlings and fish feed during most of 2020-21, and unviability of increased price of imported fingerlings since then) this target would not be reached within the project closing date. However, the multispecies hatchery (under construction through a concession to a private sector joint venture) is expected to be operational by December 2023, and the that original target is likely to be achieved by December 2024.</p&gt; The targets (3600 persons) are exceeded.&nbsp;The above estimate excludes people who received training (which was included in the result framework at approval). With training included, then total number of beneficiaries on July 31, 2022&nbsp;is 4155&nbsp;(of which 1336 (10.42%) are women).&nbsp; Share of women increased in the past month, but still short of target. MoFMRA is undertaking additional activities increase the number of women beneficiaries. &nbsp; Cumulative targets. Beneficiaries of the project include: (1) households who receive support from the project to start mariculture out-grower farms; (2) persons employed in activities and enterprises supported by the project; (3) the professionals who receive enhanced skill training from the project; (5) community members who receive capacity building through substantial training, or through direct exposure to the project activities; and (5) persons employed in value chains created by the activities supported by the project. Each household, where supported, will be assumed to be constituted by 5.9 persons. Data will be disaggregated by gender and age group cohorts.&nbsp; &nbsp; A perception survey in Year 1 (even if all beneficiaries are not identified) was expected to establish baseline. This perception survey was delayed, and cancelled in 2019 in light of a similar parallel survey (Household Income and Expenditure Survey, HIES) by the National Bureau of Statistics being also supported by the World Bank. Instead of that survey, the project will undertake some analysis of data collected in 2016 by the National Bureau of Statistics, once such data isade available by the National Bureau of Statistics, expected in September 2020. However, now COVID-19 has derailed the HIES, and it is not at all certain when the results will be available. And even if available in 2021, it can no longer be useful as a baseline. &nbsp; Current beneficiaries are all reporting &ldquo;fully satisfied&rdquo;. Verified by March-April 2021 survey of 120 direct beneficiaries, and a December 2020 survey of 200 indirect beneficiaries.&nbsp; Cumulative targets. The 2017 IOTC mission was completed. The 2018 and 2019 mission was virtual given the visit restriction to Maldives in the period leading up to and following the national elections. The planned 2020 mission could not take place due to COVID-19 pandemic. To reestablish the country as a one prime location for IOTC missions, Maldives hosted the SWIOFC annual meetings in October 2019. In 2021. The 2021 IOTC Compliance mission was organized virtually. An IOTC mission is expected during November-December 2022.&nbsp; Annual targets. As per IOTC recommendations 5% of all fishing trips (total trips are 100,000 per year). Therefore, for 100% compliance, the number of trips required is 5,000, while the Project target is 6,000. Achievements of the targets were linked to procurement of the contract for the electronic observer systems. The actual observation, after pre-trial period after installation,nbsp;started by March 2020, but was disrupted by lockdown and lack of export since early March 2020 due to COVID-19 pandemic. Reduced fishing trips meant&nbsp;that by December 2020 (Year 3), the trips were below 1,000. Continued impacts of COVID-19 pandemic now means that the final target will be completed only by October-November 2022, one or two months ahead of the current project closing date (compared to the original estimate of completing this activity at least 9 to 12 months ahead of the project closing date). To meet the target in the current situation of uncertainty due to pandemic, the project has&nbsp;procured&nbsp;an additional 5-10 numbers of such devices. However, the On-Board Vessel Electronic Observation System established and is operational.&nbsp; All out-grower farms receiving extension service. &nbsp; Although (i) the quarantine facility is capable of processing imports of at least 20,000 fingerlings per month; and, (ii) 24 of the 30 requisite operational staff with needed qualification and training are in place to operate the hatcheries, the construction of hatcheries with a capacity of producing a total of at least 150,000 fingerlings per month is yet to be completed. Eight Regulations following the Fisheries Act 2019 and seven Management Plans pursuant to the Act and Regulations were drafted, consulted on, finalized, adopted,&nbsp;notified and are under implementation. The Mariculture Research and Development facility is completed and operational as: (i) all requisite infrastructure and equipment for carrying the intended research and training of the target groups are in place; (ii) the research program was successful in establishment of at least two native or endemic fish species; (iii) the commercial hatching and production processes for at least two fish species was demonstrated; and (iv) the requisite number of qualified and experienced staff are in place to operate the science program, the operation of the facility and conduct training program for the target groups.
