ACF commissioned the evaluation of cash transfer components in two food security projects in Afghanistan. ACF was interested in understanding the effectiveness of the cash distribution methodology using the hawala system of moneychangers. Furthermore, ACF wanted to know whether specific targeting of women was appropriate and effective. The team's capacity to undertake quality assessments, develop suitable projects while managing these projects remotely, was also reviewed.
