Over the past five years, WFP’s use of cash and vouchers has grown rapidly, across crises, geographical areas, affected populations and economies. Furthermore, with the reaffirmation of WFP’s corporate strategy, as outlined in the Strategic Plan 2014–2017, this trend is expected to continue in the coming years.
This new edition of the Cash and Vouchers Manual captures the latest corporately endorsed business processes and procedures, providing the most up-to-date tools (i.e. analytical, assessment, monitoring) that have been developed through close intra-departmental collaboration between Headquarters divisions, in particular Resource Management and Accountability and Operations Services, and substantive contributions from regional bureaux and country offices.
