    Post-Distribution Monitoring of Cash-Based Intervention, February 2021

    Abstract

    THE CBI PDM Household Survey was conducted in Kyrgyzstan between February, to April, 2021. In the wake of the Covid-19 pandemic and its far lasting financial impacts, UNHCR Kyrgyzstan has rolled out an Emergency Cash Assistance Program to help refugees meet their basic needs and to mitigate harsh socio-economic impacts in the time of crisis and countrywide lockdowns. The CBI was rolled out in two rounds to all refugee and asylum seeker households to help meet their basic needs including food, rent, and access to essential supplies and services during Covid-19 restrictions.

    UNHCR uses Post-Distribution Monitoring (PDM) as a mechanism to collect refugees' feedback on the quality, sufficiency, utilization and effectiveness of the assistance items they receive. The underlying principle behind the process is linked to accountability, as well as a commitment to improve the quality and relevance of support provided, and related services. UNHCR increasingly uses Cash-Based Interventions (CBIs) as a preferred modality for delivering assistance, offering greater dignity and choice to forcibly displaced and stateless persons in line with UNHCR's core protection mandate. In order to ensure that the cash assistance provided meets the intended programme objectives and that desired outcomes are achieved, UNHCR conducts regular post-distribution and outcome monitoring with a sample or all of refugee recipients.

    Sampling

    Sampling Procedure

    The survey's objective was to survey all refugee households that were beneficiaries of cash-based interventions. The total number of households that received cash-based interventions in 2021 was 276 households. Because of the small number of households, no sampling was implemented.

    Response Rate

    The aim of the survey was to interview all refugee households that received cash assisstance. However, 85 households were not responsive or had changed the phone number and the phone number was no longer available.

    Weighting

    Sample weights were calculated for each household as the total number of beneficiaries divided by the total sample size.
