We are pleased to announce that the "Social Protection-Humanitarian Cash Transfers links" weekly update is now a joint initiative of the Grand Bargain Cash Workstream sub-group on linking social protection and humanitarian cash transfers and this online community on "Social Protection in Crisis Context" (which is an unbranded, member-led initiative hosted by socialprotection.org).

What’s inside: The newsletter includes links to the Joint Donor Statement on HCT, resources to include in training and guidance, examples from UNHCR on adjustments being made to programming and articles related to the topic that social protection and humanitarian actors may find useful. Special plug for the light touch mapping we’re undertaking (available here).

This and past updates on linking social protection (SP) and humanitarian cash and voucher assistance (CVA) in relation to the COVID 19 responses can be accessed at this link.
