Overview
The objective was to introduce integrated services for the urban poor as part of a larger Strategy for Monrovia initiative that identified strategic reforms and investments over the medium-to-longer term for enabling development of Liberia's capital city.
The analytical deliverables have been drafted, identifying specific subprojects in water, solid waste management, solar energy, agribusiness, healthcare, education, etc. Spatial analytics that this activity has supported involves mapping of the Greater Monrovia area, helps understand densification of the built environment and people in various parts of the Greater Monrovia district with population of almost one million people, or 20% of the nation.
The activity was extended from December 2019 to July 2020 to be synchronized with the discussion about project scope. GPRBA was to then take part in the discussion of RBF feasibility in each sector to enable the identification of sub-projects for possible funding under the proposed Outcomes Fund.
