Growth in #humanitarian cash and voucher assistance is one of the few success stories of the #GrandBargain, but greater focus is needed to ensure local and national actors are not bypassed. Explore the latest #data in our new report

Cash-based interventions reduce costs for operations, transportation & warehousing, freeing up more resources to directly benefit more people in need," said Omer, during a 4-day training on CBI for UN, INGOs & NGOs who are members of the Cash Working Group in #Sudan.

Quite recently, I received inquiries about various concepts and terminologies related to Cash and Voucher Assistance. When verifying these, my go-to resource is @calpnetwork's Cash 101. They do a great job at explaining things in an easy-to-understand way.

Stagnating reforms, structural challenges, and organisational interests get in the way of progress.
We need to get beyond informative coordination and work together to create meaningful change argues @RalfSuedhoff. A must listen from @cha_germany
@RalfSuedhofff analysed how #European donors could drive much-needed #humanitarian #reform through strategic #coordination and explains it in our latest episode of the CHAtroom: ow.ly/XCZu50RrOeT

Insightful piece from @calpnetwork on the importance of local partnerships for getting cash aid out the door quickly in Khartoum during the early months of Sudan's civil war calpnetwork.org/blog/local-l…
ALT Successful CVA – a locally-led response was the breakthrough for getting multi-purpose cash assistance (MPCA) to households encircled by the conflict. Together with Financial Service Provider partners, NIDAA and CORE broke through with the first delivery of cash in Khartoum to 600 households in July 2023. The two agencies built an alliance grounded in mutual learning and dialogue which positioned NIDAA as the compass to follow. For example, it was NIDAA’s team who knew the importance of blanket targeting to mitigate risks for cash recipients and humanitarian staff alike. Trying to target based on vulnerability is not only tone-deaf but ineffective, given that all who remain in Khartoum are now vulnerable. Given the duration and intensity of the conflict those sheltering in one place or moving from neighborhood to neighborhood seeking safety – have universally been selling off assets, reducing food intake, and have been unable to access healthcare, including for chronic health issues.

🥺Higher monitoring requirements for cash by donors
@eu_echo @StatePRM are u listening?
I've scribbled some thoughts about how we can make humanitarian funding go further. This isn't just about aid efficiency, it's about what people in crisis want.
Let's act on what people want & make the best of limited resources. Win-Win. @calpnetwork
