27. Recommendations It is highly recommended that the program be implemented in areas near primary or elementary school which are not handling pre-school classes. The program is not a competitor of the school but a complement. It is also recommended that the project be implemented in the area that is accessible anytime (dry and rainy season). Identification of target areas must not be determined with political interest. It is also recommended that the amount intended to the CLC, for the workbook and for the livelihood be increased due to the inflation rate.
