Description:

There is a lot of buzz on the need to link humanitarian assistance to social protection (SP) systems.

• What does this concretely mean for humanitarian actors designing Cash and Voucher Assistance (CVA) programmes?
• How does cash (social transfers/assistance) fit in within broader SP systems?
• What are the entry points for humanitarians in different contexts and how can linkages be facilitated across the programme cycle?

Join this webinar, the first of the Grand Bargain cash workstream series on linking SP with humanitarian cash, to help demystify these concepts and learn from examples of where this is happening in practice.
