The proposed operation would achieve this objective by supporting: (a) the strengthening of the program's overall governance through enhanced basic program management functions and accountability, oversight and control functions, in three axes: the registry of beneficiaries (Cadastro Unico), management of benefits, and monitoring of conditionalities; (b) the consolidation of the program?s monitoring and evaluation system; and (c) the strengthening of linkages between Bolsa Familia beneficiaries with complementary actions beyond the program to promote graduation from poverty; these activities would be carried out through the National Commitment for Social Development strategy in the MDS.

2 Overall Risk Rating Previous Rating Current Rating Low Implementation Status Overview This is a Mid Term Review ISR, based on an implementation support mission that took place from March 24 28, To date, about US$189.5 million has been disbursed, corresponding to 94.5% of the total Project envelope. The Bolsa Familia program (PBF) has been consolidated as a fundamental pillar of the Brasil Sem Miseria Plan (BSM), the Brazilian government s national strategy for eradicating extreme poverty. The coverage of PBF increased from to 13.4 (Dic 2011) to 14.1 million families (Dec 2013) and the total budget for 2014 is R$ 24.7 billion. The average benefit per month per family increased from R$145 in 2012 to R$213 in The innovations implemented in PBF within the BSM context have had improved results. For example: (i) As a result of the active-search strategy (busca ativa) and other specific registration actions, a total of 1,046,279 families were added to the registry of beneficiaries (Cadastro Unico) by December Of this total, 129,550 were indigenous families, and 107,065 were Quilombola. (ii) The Ministry of Social Development (MDS), responsible for Project implementation, built a robust monitoring system based on the revised version of the Cadastro Unico. In order to strengthen the system for monitoring conditionalities and following up with families who have not complied, MDS also invested in improving the technical capacity of staff and the expansion of the social assistance network. Specifically, 1,191 mobile teams and 121 boats for these teams were made available and more schools that serve PBF beneficiaries joined complementary programs such as Mais Educação and Saúde na Escola. (iii) Resources to municipalities and states on the basis of the Decentralized Management Index (IGD) increased by 82%, with a total amount of R$560 million allocated by the MDS every year in support of decentralized management. (iv) Another innovation was the effort, under the BSM plan, to boost families income so that they could overcome the extreme poverty income threshold (set at R$70 per person per month). Accordingly, several measures were adopted: the BSM Plan adjusted the PBF benefit amounts; it increased the cap on the number of children and adolescents that could receive the variable benefit in each family; it began paying benefits to pregnant and lactating women; and, most importantly, it created a new benefit that closed the extreme poverty gap for all extremely poor families in the program. Through these measures, approximately 22 million people have overcome extreme poverty since the launch of the BSM Plan, from an income perspective. In addition, the BSM Plan continued to consolidate activities to promote the productive inclusion of the poor and vulnerable in the economic arena, in both urban and rural areas. As of March 2014, more than one million people had enrolled in the vocational training program PRONATEC-BSM; thousand PBF beneficiaries participated in Programa de Microempreendedor Individual (MEI), a program for individual micro-entrepreneurs. Regarding productive inclusion in rural areas, thousand PBF beneficiary households received technical assistance and resources for promoting rural production. In addition, thousand water reservoirs were built in the semi-arid Northeast region of the country with the support of the Agua Para Todos Program (Water for All). The Project supports the objectives of the BSM and is on track to meet its development objectives and indicator targets.

This is the best result we have since the start of monitoring this indicator. The improvement is due to the merge between MoE's Educational Census and BF's "Sistema Presença" administrative dataset. Data on 100% of beneficiaries. Primary school attendance of children of Percentage Value extremely poor beneficiary families 30-Jun-2009 Percentage of children aged 0-6 and pregnant women in beneficiary families complying with heath conditionalities First semester information on 85% of beneficiaries shows compliance of 97% equivalent to 84% overall. This indicator covers children 6-15 years old (primary school age) who are eligible for the program. There was a 5 percentage points increase when compared to the same period in This is the best result we have since the start of monitoring this indicator. This improvement is due to the merge between MoE's Educational Census and BF's "Sistema Presença" administrative dataset. Percentage Value Jun-2009 Information on 63% of beneficiaries shows 99% compliance giving overall 63%. At the end of the year 2013, based on the calculation of the 2nd semester of the health monitoring system of compliance were followed 73.44% of beneficiary households of BSF. The percentage obtained was higher than same period 2012, 0.31 percentage points. Page 3 of 7

4 Use of Cadastro Unico for targeting state level social programs Number Value Jan-2011 This is the number of state governments using Cadastro Unico for targeting other programs than BF. In December 2013, there were 9 state governments using the Single Registry to target state level social programs. States and programs are: 1. Distrito Federal - DF Sem Miséria 2. Espírito Santo - Bolsa Capixaba 3. Mato Grosso - Panela Cheia. 4. Rio de Janeiro -Renda Melhor 5. Rio Grande do Sul - RS Mais Igual 6. Santa Catarina - Santa Renda 7. Paraná - Família Paranaense 8. Minas Gerais-Nova Lima - Vida Nova 9. Amazonas - Manaus - Bolsa Municipal There was a drop in this indicator because some state level cash transfer programs that used the Single Registry were incorporated into the BSM federal program, namely: Adjunto da Solidadariedade, Acre; Renda Cidadã, Goiás; Bolsa Futuro, Rondônia; and Renda Cidadã, São Paulo. The drop in the indicator was a result of the integration effort under the BSM plan.

The fall from 82.42% in 2011 to 81.56% in 2012 is a result of random statistical fluctuations.
