CBCCs key in improving children's wellbeing

World Vision: Nourishing Children’s Futures Policy Brief

In 2016, a small group of community members in Nkeyema District came together with a shared goal: to improve their livelihoods and create new economic opportunities. At that time, many faced challenges such as limited access to formal financial services and insufficient resources to invest in farming or education. Recognising these struggles, World Vision Zambia introduced the Savings for Transformation (S4T) model in Kaliyangile Zone. This approach was simple yet powerful: members pool their savings to create loans, build financial resilience, and foster community development.

To rethink how to effectively address food crises and showcase how the humanitarian system can update and re-imagine itself to meaningfully contribute to reversing the trends of acute hunger and reduce needs, ECOSOC Humanitarian Affairs Segment (HAS) had a side event focused on People-Driven Responses: The Effective Way to Combat Food Crises. World Vision, represented by Amanda Rives Argeñal, discussed the transformative potential of Cash and Voucher Assistance (CVA), as a preferred modality to meet recipients’ specific needs, specifically in protracted food crises, while offering flexibility, dignity, and cost effectiveness.
