Descripción
This brief is based on data collected during qualitative field work in March 2014 and forms part of an overall impact evaluation implemented by the University of North Carolina, UNICEF, the Center for Social Research and the Food and Agriculture Organization of the United Nations (FAO). The qualitative research is part of a comparative six-country study that explores the impact of cash transfer programmes on household economic decision-making, the local economy and social networks in sub-Saharan Africa as part of the From Protection to Production (PtoP) project. Districts sampled for this study included Salima in the central region, and Phalombe in the south. The study was carried out through focus groups and key informant interviews using participatory methods. A range of selected tools was employed, including social mapping, livelihood analysis, institutional analysis (Venn diagrams) and household income and expenditure analysis.
