Post-Distribution Monitoring of Cash-Based Intervention 2023 - Tajikistan

Abstract
---------------------------

THE CBI PDM Household Survey was conducted in Tajikistan in January 2023. Tajikistan hosts the largest number of refugees in Central Asia, predominantly from neighbouring Afghanistan. While some progress has been achieved in areas such as access to health and education for refugees, livelihoods and self-reliance, though, continue to pose a challenge. As the result of Covid-19, refugees faced a myriad of challenges, including the loss of daily incomes and livelihoods to cover basic needs such as rent, food and health care. For refugees in Tajikistan, who largely rely on daily work, the impact of Covid 19 has been devastating as it has led to widespread unemployment. As a response measure, UNHCR jointly with its NGO partner provided Covid-19 cash assistance to 183 refugee households over the course of six months. The results from this survey suggest that cash assistance provided as an immediate measure to support vulnerable refugee households has had a positive impact on the lives of the respondents. Cash assistance predominantly has been spent to cover food, medicines and rent costs.

UNHCR uses Post-Distribution Monitoring (PDM) as a mechanism to collect refugees' feedback on the quality, sufficiency, utilization and effectiveness of the assistance items they receive. The underlying principle behind the process is linked to accountability, as well as a commitment to improve the quality and relevance of support provided, and related services. UNHCR increasingly uses Cash-Based Interventions (CBIs) as a preferred modality for delivering assistance, offering greater dignity and choice to forcibly displaced and stateless persons in line with UNHCR's core protection mandate. In order to ensure that the cash assistance provided meets the intended programme objectives and that desired outcomes are achieved, UNHCR conducts regular post-distribution and outcome monitoring with a sample or all of refugee recipients.

摘要
---------------------------
CBI PDM家庭调查于2023年1月在塔吉克斯坦进行。塔吉克斯坦是中亚地区容纳难民数量最多的国家，其中大部分来自邻近的阿富汗。尽管在为难民提供健康和教育、生计和自给自足等方面取得了一些进展，但这些问题仍然构成了挑战。由于新冠疫情的影响，难民面临诸多挑战，包括日常收入的丧失，导致无法满足基本需求，如租金、食物和医疗保健。对于主要依赖日常工作的塔吉克斯坦难民来说，新冠疫情的影响是灾难性的，因为它导致了广泛失业。作为应对措施，联合国难民署（UNHCR）与其非政府组织合作伙伴在六个月内共同向183户难民家庭提供了新冠疫情现金援助。该调查的结果表明，为支持易受伤害的难民家庭而提供的即时现金援助对受访者的生活产生了积极影响。现金援助主要用于支付食物、药品和租金费用。

联合国难民署采用分发后监测（PDM）作为收集难民对其收到的援助物品质量、充足性、利用率和有效性的反馈的机制。该过程背后的基本原理与问责制以及致力于提高提供支持和相关服务的质量和相关性相关。联合国难民署越来越多地使用基于现金的干预（CBIs）作为提供援助的首选方式，这为被迫流离失所和无国籍人士提供了更大的尊严和选择，符合联合国难民署的核心保护使命。为了确保提供的现金援助符合预期的项目目标，并实现期望的结果，联合国难民署定期对样本或所有难民受助人进行分发后和结果监测。
