THE EFFECT OF MULTI-PURPOSE CASH ASSISTANCE' ELIGIBILITY ON LABOUR OUTCOMES OF SYRIAN REFUGEES

Abstract

In November 2017, WFP and UNHCR constructed an assistance scheme called the Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance, targeting the most economically vulnerable Syrian refugee households, in an attempt to alleviate burdens and help them meet their basic needs and improve their overall well-being. The purpose of this research paper is to get a better understanding of the impact of the Multi-purpose cash assistance scheme on livelihood outcomes, namely on labour market outcomes.
