5 Poverty has various manifestations, including lack of income and productive resources sufficient to ensure sustainable livelihoods; hunger and malnutrition; ill health; limited access to education and other basic services; increased morbidity and mortality from illness; homelessness and inadequate housing; unsafe environments; and social discrimination and exclusion. Botes, 2009

6 child-sensitive social protection should focus on aspects of well-being that include: providing adequate child and maternal nutrition; access to quality basic services for the poorest and most marginalized; supporting families and caregivers in their child care role, including increasing the time available within the household; addressing gender inequality; preventing discrimination and child abuse in and outside the home; reducing child labour; increasing caregivers access to employment or income generation; and preparing adolescents for their own livelihoods, taking account of their role as current and future workers and parents UNICEF 2011

16 No able bodied HH member years to do productive work. Able bodied member present but has to care for more than 3 members less than 18 or above 59 who are sick. HH that can not benefit sufficiently from labor based interventions.

17 Food Poor- Living below the food poverty line. Total household expenditure exceeds amount required to get minimal food requirements (2100Kcal) Cannot purchase essential non food items e.g. soap, clothes Thus chronic hunger prevails

19 Cash In transit will be used National Programme Office using MIS sends payment schedule to delivery agency and instructs bank to transfer respective funds to the payment agency Beneficiaries are issued with beneficiary cards Payment is made bi monthly

20 CIT the following payments are done at one or two central pay points per ward using a fixed schedule At the end of each payment cycle the delivery agencies report electronically to the Central Programme Office on transfers done (Form 6) and refund the balance to the programme account (Reconciliation using Form 8)
