The vast majority of international humanitarian aid is provided in-kind, in
the form of food, seeds, tools, medicines, shelter materials and household
goods. At the same time, however, there is a significant and growing body
of experience with the provision of cash or vouchers as alternatives or
complements to in-kind assistance.
This GPR synthesises existing cash transfer guidelines, centralises lessons
from research and evaluations and adds practical examples drawn from
cash-based interventions.
