In this guide Oxfam staff present the rationale behind cash-transfer programmes. They explain how to assess whether cash is the most appropriate response to any particular emergency. The book draws on the practical experience of Oxfam and other agencies and key elements have been identified and collected in these 16 A6 cards. Different types of cash intervention are compared - cash grants, vouchers and cash-for-work with checklists to explain how to implement each of them.
