Overall Objective

Enable conflict-affected people and communities to meet their basic needs and live in safe and dignified conditions, enabling the building back of personal and local resilience.

Specific Objective

Rapid response mechanism for HHs in crisis, providing emergency support to HHs impacted by conflict, displacement, or significant gap in essential service provision through 5 rounds of multipurpose cash assistance (MPCA).
Rapid response MPCA (cash in hand) will aim to provide immediate access to basic food and non-food items, reducing dependence on negative and irreversible coping strategies, and improving HH level food security indicators in the immediate (short)term.

Households will be selected based on set triggers, which will include the severity of need, lack of viable other humanitarian support, and/or recent displacement). At the HH level, DPNA will look at vulnerability (single parent or child-headed household, high dependent to earner ratio, disability, recent displacement), food security and coping strategy indicators, and lack of humanitarian support.
