Owing to its success in implementation of the (YECRP), the wb, which financed the project through UNDP, once again selected the PWP to partner in the implementation of the new Yemen integrated urban services project (yiusEp).
The wb allocated an amount of US$150 million through UNOPS to finance the yiusp activities for three years ending on December 2020. The main project objective is to restore community assets and critical urban infrastructure in a number of cities preselected by the wb.
The project, which will be implemented by a number of partners, include subprojects in urban roads and transport, urban water supply and sanitation, and energy. Municipal services subprojects are to be implemented by the PWP.
