Descripción
This report presents analysis and findings from a qualitative research case study conducted in March 2014 in the Tigray region of Ethiopia, the last of a six country study of the economic impact of cash transfer programmes in Sub Saharan Africa. Starting in 2011, the Social Cash Transfer Pilot Programme (SCTPP) provides a social protection system through regular and predictable monthly cash transfers (a basic transfer of US$ 7.88) to extremely poor and labour constrained households. By 2014 the SCTPP was reaching over 3,700 beneficiary households in the two woredas (districts) targeted by the programme in the Tigray region, Hintalo Wajirat - a rural woreda-, and the town of Abi Adi.
