SL Economic crisis response

Sri Lanka Economic Crisis Response Project

Immediate Lifesaving and Protection Support to the Most Vulnerable Affected by the Sri Lankan Economic Crisis Project - also known as the Sri Lanka Economic Crisis Response Project focuses on responding to the immediate needs of households most affected by the current economic crisis in Sri Lanka. 

The project will select 60,000 individuals including 4,200 households for multi-purpose cash assistance (MPCA) and 840 households for cash for protection closely working with steering committees that include local government authorities as well as community-based organizations, women groups and child representatives.  

Starting with a household-based assessment to identify the people in need it will not only look at the availability of food but also their health, safety, protection, education and livelihood. This will help gauge the expenditure basket and match the cash assistance accordingly.
