Description
This report examines how cash and voucher assistance (CVA) is used for anticipatory action across the Red Cross and Red Crescent Movement, delivered ahead of predicted hazards to help people protect their homes, livelihoods and health. Over the past 11 years it has become a standard part of National Societies' Early Action Protocols. The study assesses its effectiveness and identifies areas for improvement.
