A report by WFP on Somalia Databases and Beneficiary Registries for Cash Transfer Programming. An ECHO-funded technical assistance facility, managed by the WFP, aims to explore how social protection systems can be strengthened in fragile and forced displacement contexts, with a view to contributing to the global learning agenda on when and how these can be used to address humanitarian needs in a more cost-effective, efficient and predictable way. This report takes stock of beneficiary registration practices and information management systems currently used by the main humanitarian and resilience actors and government. By documenting what systems exist, the assistance reviews how common data management systems might underpin better coordination or pooling of caseloads and assistance between large-scale humanitarian actors.
