This project seeks to monitor the effectiveness of cash and food voucher projects implemented at scale and to determine the impacts on local markets and beneficiary households. It was undertaken by the Somalia Cash and Voucher Monitoring Group (CVMG) and monitored by the Humanitarian Policy Group.

The underlying aim of the CVMG partnership was to develop a substantial body of evidence to help determine whether cash-based programming could provide a viable and effective means of assistance in response to severe and widespread food insecurity in the Somali context.
