Protection in CVA

This 1-day training will: • Familiarize humanitarian agency staff with the Guide for Protection and Cash-Based Interventions and key resources. • Provide practical instruction for analyzing and monitoring protection risks and benefits in cash-based interventions.

27 January 2025

Objectives

Specifically, this training will address:
• Reducing risks:
o Incorporating protective design, implementation and monitoring elements into CBIs so that
the programming does not increase, and rather helps to mitigate, risks for beneficiaries or
persons of concern.
o Designing interventions that mitigate unintended consequences related to the introduction
of cash. This could focus on avoiding community tensions, and improving or maintaining
relationships between beneficiaries and non-beneficiaries of assistance, and within
households. Mitigation also includes monitoring of risks and making design adjustments as
necessary.
• Enhancing benefits:
o Designing and revising programs so that CBIs enhance protection benefits, such as
improved household and community relations, dignity through choice, and safe, impartial
access to assistance.
o Building upon the inherent potential of CBI to contribute to participation, accountability
and meeting the needs of different groups and individuals.
• Designing protection objectives and indicators for programs using CBI.
o Introductory information only; in-depth use of CBIs to contribute to protection outcomes
will not be addressed.
