No small change. Malawi and Zambia emergency cash transfer projects : A synthesis of key learnings

In 2005 and 2006, Oxfam UK set up two cash transfer projects in Zambia and Malawi. The programmes were assessed by the Overseas Development Institute (ODI), and this paper uses its main conclusions. The assessment brings out the points in common and the differences between the two experiences and provides elements for analysing the lessons learned for future programmes. The authors emphasise the need for better interconnections between short term actions and social protection programmes set up in the countries.
