The Cash Consortium of Sudan (CCS), a collaborative platform to advance a progressive vision of the potential of cash and markets assistance to transform humanitarian response and recovery in partnership with vulnerable conflict-affected populations in Sudan. CCS leverages common programmatic approaches as well as M&E for harmonized and scaled delivery and learning. The core intervention areas for the CCS include:

• Cash assistance for basic needs, inclusive of:
  • Multi-Purpose Cash Assistance (targeting households)
  • Group Cash Transfers (targeting community-based organizations, both formal and informal)
• Market strengthening interventions, with focus on enhancing availability, affordability and resilience of supply chains for basic needs items (food and non-food)
• Capacity strengthening with local NGOs
• Generation of evidence to inform refinements to program design as well as the broader response

The CCS is a multi-donor platform with an anticipated initial funding base of $50M USD to enable a nationwide response, though the majority of resources will be focused at the outset on famine prevention and response in the Greater Darfur Region, as well as Greater Kordofan Region and Khartoum.
