Scaling up existing social safety nets to provide humanitarian response
A case study of Ethiopia鈥檚 Productive Safety Net Programme and Kenya鈥檚 Hunger Safety Net Programme
Abstract
This thematic report has been undertaken as part of a 2013 research study entitled Is Cash Transfer Programming 鈥楩it for the Future鈥�? The research was commissioned by the Cash Learning Partnership (CaLP) and undertaken by the Humanitarian Futures Programme (HFP), King鈥檚 College London. The overall project intends to understand how changes in the broader global and humanitarian landscape may evolve in the future (up to 2025), and how these changes might shape cash transfer programming (CTP). The analysis examines these issues in the context of ongoing global dialogue on the future of humanitarianism, including the post-2015 Millennium Development Goals processes, the deliberations for the next iteration of the Hyogo Framework for Action, and the World Humanitarian Summit 2016.
