Cash-Based Interventions

Cash-Based Interventions (CBIs) are programs that provide financial assistance to individuals or families in need, often in the context of humanitarian aid or social support. Instead of giving goods or services directly, CBIs enable recipients to choose how to spend the money based on their specific needs, such as food, shelter, or healthcare. This approach empowers beneficiaries, promotes local economies, and increases the efficiency of aid distribution. CBIs can take the form of cash transfers, vouchers, or digital payments, allowing flexibility and ensuring that help reaches those who need it most in a timely manner.
