The Global Partnership on Output-Based
Aid (GPOBA) has recently completed a project that made
35,000 new natural gas connections to poor households in
Colombia's Caribbean coastal region. This partnership
between GPOBA and Fundacion Promigas (a charitable
foundation established by Colombian gas distribution holding
company, Promigas) has resulted in substantial benefits to
Colombia's poor population. Because in-home natural gas
connections provide a safer, more environmentally friendly,
and less expensive substitute to previously used fuels, poor
families are enjoying the long-term advantages from this
program's one-time subsidies. This note explores the
results of this program and draws lessons for future projects. |
