1. BACKGROUND

The ACF’s Emergency Readiness and Response Unit (ERRU) strategy is to strengthen the capacity of ACF teams to respond effectively and rapidly to humanitarian needs. The ERRU provides preparedness support to country offices and is increasingly receiving requests for various types of emergency training.

The use of Cash and Voucher Assistance in Emergencies (CVAiE) is rapidly gaining momentum in ACF. Its effectiveness is recognised as a suitable response modality in various countries where ACF works. Thus, over half of ACF – France country offices[1] expressed the need and willingness to use CVA modality in the event of a humanitarian crisis.

Thus, during the last quarter of 2021, ACF developed a CVAiE guideline (handbook and toolbox) that incorporates the preparedness phase into the CVA project cycle. In 2022, the strategy would be to present, disseminate, train and provide technical support to ACF country offices and headquarters team.
