Published:
Brochures: Brochure

FAO defines Cash+ as an intervention that combines cash transfers with productive assets, inputs and/or technical training and extension services to enhance the livelihoods and productive capacities of poor and vulnerable households. By providing unconditional cash transfers plus livelihood inputs and training, FAO addresses not only the needs of vulnerable households in emergency situations, but also those in development contexts. The modality is impactful, enhancing the economic impacts of cash transfers while enhancing livelihoods potential. Evidence from various contexts shows that Cash+ can significantly improve households’ agricultural production, income generation, asset ownership, economic empowerment, as well as dietary diversity and food security.
