ash and Voucher
Assistance is often a preferred tool for anticipatory actions, due to the flexibility it offers to cover different needs, but above all, because it dignifies humanitarian assistance. It allows people prepare, prioritize and take care of their families based on their own preferences and decisions. To facilitate the exchange of experiences
among National Societies that have opted for this tool, a regional workshop was held on December, in Tegucigalpa, Honduras. The event was attended by 25 specialists from Honduras, El Salvador, Guatemala, Costa Rica, Dominican Republic, Ecuador, Argentina, Paraguay and Chile. The need to continue strengthening capacities at different institutional levels was highlighted, to ensure that Cash and Voucher Assistance is used effectively during emergencies.
