1.? About The State of the World’s Cash 2023
The State of the World’s Cash is a flagship report that represents a neutral and impartial assessment of the current context of cash and voucher assistance (CVA) as part of humanitarian aid. It’s a key reference for policy makers, practitioners, and researchers involved in humanitarian programming.
It unveils several crucial findings that are shaping the future of CVA. The infographic below shows some of the key points from the report:
More and better CVA: the use of CVA has increased, the quality improved but there’s still a long way to go
The volume of cash and voucher assistance has grown significantly in recent years; however, this growth could be at risk of stalling. We can make further improvements both in terms of scale and quality.
Constant adjustment: Needs are changing and perspectives evolving
Humanitarian needs are changing, with longer-term, complex crises and more people on the move than ever before. We must design and adapt CVA in response to pressing issues such as economic volatility, the climate crisis and financial inclusion.
Structural constraints: Greater systems change needed for CVA to meet its full potential
CVA will not reach its potential unless further, substantive, changes are made to the underlying structures, mindsets, and day to day processes of the humanitarian system. This requires ongoing collective effort and commitment from all stakeholders.
