PROGRAMS


Baseline Studies and Impact Assessment of Cash Transfer
Cash transfers (CTs) are increasingly becoming a pathway towards providing social protection and mitigation against hunger and poverty. CCBI conducts CT baseline studies, which are designed to provide the actual measurements of various parameters prior to implementation of the programme, and markers with which household status in future, especially after the CT programme intervention would be compared.

In collaboration with the Ministry of Gender, Children and Social Development (MGCSD) and HLSP, a firm based in England, CCBI is conducting an impact assessment on a CT programme for orphans and vulnerable children in Kitui, Mwingi, Thika, Kisii Central, Gucha, Kakamega, Nandi, Wareng, Eldoret West, and Eldoret East.
