Social cash transfers: the risk of Malawi's donor dependence

BLISS ISS blog header

In this new blog post on ISS blog BLISS, Roeland Hemsteede discusses the dangers of Malawi's dependence on donor funding and lack of government buy-in.

He argues that Malawi’s Social Cash Transfer Programme (SCTP) bears all signs of being donor-driven, with limited buy-in from Malawi’s political elites, with the Government of Malawi funding the transfers in just one of Malawi's 28 districts. This jeopardises the long-term future of the SCTP.
