Poor families benefiting from nutrition's cash transfer
From the International Food Policy Research Institute's (IFPRI) independent assessment on SFD Cash for Nutrition program:
"Most households recalled receiving between 80,000 and 110,000 riyals per year since the program payments were re-started. When asked a multiple response question about how the household had used the transfer, 74 percent of respondents mentioned using the transfers to buy more food, while 48 percent used them to repay store credit. About 30 percent of respondents mentioned using the transfers for healthcare costs, and the same share mentioned using them to repay debts to neighbors or relatives."
