As part of the resilience package, SMART provided an opportunity to build productive assets in the form of food assistance for assets (FFA), whereby the most vulnerable households received cash for participating in asset work activities, including hillside terracing and marshland restoration. The evaluation estimates the impact of participating in FFA on food security and resilience by randomizing the opportunity to engage in FFA across 78 communities in five rural sectors of Rwanda. In addition, in half of the communities engaging in FFA, only women were targeted with the programme; in the other half, either men or women could be registered. This allowed to assess the impacts of women¡¯s participation in FFA on gender equality outcomes.
The Impact Evaluation is part of the and the Impact Evaluation Windows, both created by the ÐÓ°ÉÂÛ̳Office of Evaluation and respective programme teams, and delivered in partnership with the World Bank¡¯s Development Impact Department.
