Cash transfers for transport to health centres and malnutrition treatment centres

The NGO HELP (Hilfe zur Selbsthilfe) has been active in Burkina Faso’s Sahel region since 2008 and has successfully carried out interventions to strengthen the health system and fight malnutrition.  In 2018, HELP obtained funding from ECHO for a project to fight acute malnutrition in Sebba health district.  Within the framework of this project, HELP introduced cash transfers to pay the costs of transporting children suffering from severe acute malnutrition to the Intensive Nutritional Recovery and Education Centre (CRENI) in Sebba.
