المساعدات النقدية والقسائم الخاصة بقطاعات معينة
يمكن أن تساعد المساعدات النقدية والقسائم الأشخاص في الأزمات على تلبية احتياجاتهم ضمن قطاع إنساني محدد، مثل المياه أو الغذاء أو الصحة أو المأوى أو سبل العيش أو الحماية. يمكن تقييد المساعدات النقدية والقسائم الخاص بقطاع معين أو عدم تقييده، ومشروطًا أو غير مشروط، وسيتم توفيره عادةً كجزء من حزمة شاملة قد تتضمن أيضًا المساعدة العينية والقائمة على الخدمة.
يتعين على كل قطاع النظر في مختلف الأسئلة والتحديات والمزايا والمخاطر عندما يتعلق الأمر بدعم تعافي الأشخاص في مجال خبرتهم. وهذا يتطلب أدلة وأدوات وإرشادات وقدرات. يتطلب تحقيق النتائج الخاصة بالقطاع من خلال المساعدة النقدية والقسائم أيضًا فهمًا متعدد القطاعات للاحتياجات والأمن الاقتصادي للأسرة، راجع المساعدة النقدية متعددة الأغراض. في حين أن بعض القطاعات تتمتع بخبرة كبيرة في تنفيذ المساعدات النقدية والقسائم وقد فعلت ذلك لسنوات عديدة، فإن البعض الآخر يواكب التطورات. تلتزم معظم القطاعات الإنسانية وتعمل على تكثيف جهودها في مساعدات نقدية وقسائم خاصة بقطاعات محددة. تقوم المجموعة العالمية لتنسيق القطاعات أيضًا بتنسيق العمل عبر المجموعات لتحسين القطاع القطاعي المستخدم من المساعدات النقدية والقسائم.
