Direct cash transfer

Direct cash transfer refers to a government program that provides financial assistance directly to individuals or households, typically through electronic payments. This method is designed to support those in need, such as low-income families, by giving them cash that they can spend on essentials like food, healthcare, or education. Unlike traditional welfare programs, which may provide goods or services, direct cash transfers offer recipients the flexibility to use the money as they see fit, promoting financial autonomy. This approach has gained popularity for its efficiency and potential to reduce poverty.
