Aid organisations have increased cash and voucher assistance (CVA) in the Central African Republic (CAR) over the past two years, reaching 1.5 million people between January and September 2021, compared with 848,000 in 2020.

To support efforts to adapt programmes based on the views of recipients, Ground Truth Solutions (GTS) conducted 24 qualitative interviews and a survey with 922 CVA recipients in 2021 to understand their views on the humanitarian response and their experiences of receiving aid.
