Group Cash Transfer (GCT) is an approach that provides resources in the form of cash transfers to unregistered, emerging or self-mobilizing community groups to implement projects that contribute to immediate survival and recovery needs of a crisisaffected population, benefiting either a sub-section of the community or the community at large.

Like other forms of Cash Assistance, GCTs are unrestricted grants that seek to transfer power to crisis-affected  populations and community groups to respond to their own needs and priorities.
