Introduction

The South Sudan Cash Working Group (CWG) is established under the Inter Cluster Working Group (ICWG) to ensure cash-based assistance, both sector-specific and multi-purpose, is well-coordinated and follows a consistent rationale and approach. Cash-based assistance uses local markets and services to meet the needs of people affected by crises, incorporating a variety of forms including vouchers and unconditional or conditional cash transfers. The CWG builds upon, and expands to other sectors, the work of the former Cash Transfer and Markets Working Group under the Food Security and Livelihoods cluster - which is folded into the CWG. The CWG reports to the Humanitarian Country Team (HCT) through the Chair of the ICWG.
