The Conditional Cash Transfer programme of Child Sensitive Social Protection (referred to as the CCT or the CCT programme) was first implemented with the objective to support socio economic empowerment and increase the income of the families who were fostering orphans or brining up vulnerable children. Over time it was scaled up and further developed as a tool for socio economic empowerment of families combating child marriage, child labour and school dropout. Additionally, the programme is being used as a method to reduce institutionalisation of orphans and children without care, especially when they can be raised in a family or community-setting.
The aim of this evaluation is to provide evidence on the results of the cash transfer programme and to understand the role of cash in sustaining transformative social protection for children. The evaluation should also provide the Government sound information to base their decisions around the best arrangement for children without parental care.
