This guidance on Cash and Voucher Assistance (CVA) for Protection Outcomes during the COVID-19 pandemic has been prepared with input from members of the GPC Task Team on Cash for Protection. It is intended as a quick reference tool to support CVA and protection colleagues working directly with displaced and host clients to collaborate in the use of CVA for protection outcomes. This guidance addresses: (1) CVA for protection outcomes within the protection sector and; (2) Ensuring safe delivery and use of CVA for protection outcomes within the protection sector. This document will be updated periodically and will aim to broaden its scope over time. It should be read in conjunction with all Global Protection Cluster COVID-19 guidance, including the GPC’s COVID 19 Response and Preparedness Related Measures - Protection Programming Guidance and also existing general guidance on Protection in Cash-Based Interventions.
