Summary
Conditional cash transfers are becoming increasingly popular as a tool to help communities in dire times of need. In recent years, they have been deployed in the environmental space and have been shown to lead to reduced deforestation and biodiversity loss. This project will use a conditional cash transfer to aid over 1,000 families who have been negatively impacted by COVID-19, in an effort to reduce hardships that often force communities to depend on IWT in times of need.
