  8. Access to Livelihood Opportunities • Approximately 20% of beneficiaries have started new income generating activities since the start of the project. • Percentage of HH receiving external support has decreased from 23% to 15%

  9. Experienced food shortage in last 3 months

  10. Household Food Availability

  11. Number of Meals Consumed

  12. Use of Coping Strategies

  13. Challenges • Higher demand – number of vulnerable households is higher than allocated beneficiaries for Cash Relief and Livelihood grants. • Price increase of MEB. • No contingency fund

  14. Lessons Learned • Need to mobilize additional resources to increase the grant size to meet the MEB or supplement it through other sources. • What would a large scale safety nets look like? Is it a combination of cash with skills or cash/vouchers alone? • Is there a role for technical skills training, in safety nets? • Is graduation of beneficiaries a priority?

  15. Linking Cash Transfer to SSN • SSN project guided Cash Consortium for cash transfer at scale in South Central Somalia • Because SSN already existed, it was easier to scale up as experience and M&E tools were available. • Need to link present experiences to strategize Safety Nets initiatives at scale: • Consortium approach already exists to allow scale • M&E Tools exist • Experience already exists on how to do it at scale
