South Sudan Red Cross Society (SSRC) with the support of Danish Red Cross conducted a pilot in 2023 using the Group Cash Transfer (GCT) approach. The SSRC engaged in the GCTs pilot to complement their ongoing strategic priority towards using cash and voucher assistance in their interventions. The GCTs allowed communities to lead the priority setting, design, implementation, and monitoring of their group projects. The overall project aim was to stimulate and create avenues for communities to access food locally and to enable resilient livelihoods for the group members.
