    DateFebruary 1, 2005September 30, 2012March 31, 2013
    CommentThis indicator will have to be reviewed as until now it has been underestimated, because it counted as beneficiaries only membersof project committees rather than the whole community. It has been agreed that for most types of sub-projects, the whole communityshould be considered beneficiary (e.g., water supply, health, sanitation, transport). NB: The percentage of female beneficiaries(a sub-indicator) is estimated on the basis of census figures; the previous ISR erroneously report the estimated number rather thanthe percentage.
