CILT Awards in Cash Transfer Programming
For humanitarian aid agencies there is an increasing trend to develop cash transfer mechanisms to people in need rather than direct aid. While this give the recipients more freedom of choice, it is also a stimulus to maintain local supply chains.
In recent years, Cash Transfer Programming (CTP) has emerged as one of the most significant innovations in international humanitarian assistance. By 2015, two billion dollars was spent on cash and vouchers and the global trend is increasing. The benefits of CTP have been shown to cut across multiple sectors to address women’s empowerment, food security, emissions reduction, education and healthcare. While CTP is widely recognised to be an essential tool to enhance humanitarian responses, it is not a silver bullet or panacea.
To meet this demand, Logistics Learning Alliance, a leading provider of humanitarian logistics and supply chain courses, have designed two new Awards in CTP, which also forms part of the recently revised Certification in Humanitarian Logistics (CHL) and Certification in Humanitarian Supply Chain Management (CHSCM) Programmes.
Supply Chain Managers and Logisticians have a key role to play in both establishing these mechanisms and also in assessing the robustness of the local supply chain to support this modality. It was felt by the Certification Advisory Group that the CHL and CHSCM programmes should reflect this content.
Designed for those who need to have a greater understanding of how to implement Cash Transfer programmes and for Graduates of the Certification in Logistics or Supply Chain Management programmes.
