DRC Cash and Vouchers Food Security Evaluation (2014)

People in eastern Democratic Republic of Congo (DRC) have long faced protracted conflict and instability resulting in the displacement of populations. In order to provide households affected by new displacements with timely access to food, ECHO funded the Norwegian Refugee Council (NRC), the Association of Volunteers in International Service (AVSI) and the International Rescue Committee (IRC) to provide food assistance.

This document examines the appropriateness and effectiveness of the food assistance intervention, including its complementarity with RRMP, as well as the lessons on the different cash-based food assistance approaches utilised by partners.
