CCBI is in collaboration with the Department of Social Development to carry out an impact assessment of the CT-OVC programme to determine and document any changes to the recipient households and the community at large. The research will therefore:

- The effect of the programme’s conditionalities (enforcement of penalties) on key indicators such as health and educational outcomes
