November, 17 -18th, 2011, Nairobi, Kenya
CaLP's 5th Global Learning Event was organised in partnership with the International Federation of Red Cross and Red Crescent societies (IFRC). The learning event took place in Nairobi, Kenya, and focused on three topics of emerging importance not only to cash transfer programming, but to humanitarian response as a whole: new technologies, market assessments, and scale.
The event provided a dynamic forum for humanitarian policy-makers and practitioners to gather together and review global learning on cash transfer programming in emergencies, as well as a timely opportunity to relate these discussions and debate to the current Horn of Africa crisis.
CaLP wishes to thank everyone who participated in this event for making it a huge success, and to recognise our donors, ECHO and Visa Inc, for making it all possible.
