Post-Distribution Monitoring of Winter Cash Assistance - 2023 - Poland

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

UNHCR uses cash based interventions (CBIs) as a preferred modality for delivering assistance, offering greater dignity and choice in line with UNHCR’s core protection mandate. In order to ensure that the cash assistance provided meets the intended objectives and that desired outcomes are achieved, UNHCR conducts regular post-distribution and outcome monitoring (PDM) with a sample of cash recipients residing across the country.

This PDM follows the winter cash assistance programme in Poland in response to the arrival of refugees from Ukraine. The objective of the programme was to support vulnerable refugee families and individuals in addressing their basic needs, mitigating the impact of the winter price increases in rent, utilities and clothing. The programme was aimed at households who benefited from the multi-purpose cash assistance in 2022 and who had at least two specific needs identified within the household, with 3,437 households / 8,629 refugees benefiting.

A PDM assessment was carried out in March 2023. It consisted of a structured household-level survey using a tool developed by UNHCR, and data was collected, cleaned and analysed by UNHCR. The survey was administered via phone interviews to a representative sample of 352 beneficiary households. The sample frame included 1,088 beneficiary households that were not included in phone interviews for previous PDMs for the multi-purpose cash assistance programme.

This is an anonymous version of the original data collected and used for the primary analysis.

摘要
---------------------------
联合国难民署（UNHCR）将基于现金的干预措施（CBIs）作为提供援助的首选方式，旨在提供符合其核心保护宗旨的更高尊严和选择权。为确保所提供的现金援助达到预期目标并实现期望的结果，联合国难民署对全国范围内的现金接收者样本进行了定期的分发后和结果监测（PDM）。

此次PDM是对波兰冬季现金援助计划进行的，以应对乌克兰难民的到来。该计划的目标是支持易受伤害的难民家庭和个人满足其基本需求，减轻冬季租金、公用事业和衣物价格上涨的影响。该计划旨在帮助在2022年从多用途现金援助中受益的家庭，且家庭内部至少存在两个特定的需求，共有3,437个家庭/8,629名难民从中受益。

2023年3月进行了PDM评估。评估包括使用联合国难民署开发的工具进行的结构化家庭层面调查，并由联合国难民署收集、清洗和分析数据。调查通过电话访谈对352户受益家庭进行了实施。样本框架包括1,088户受益家庭，这些家庭未参与之前为多用途现金援助计划进行的PDM。
