Abstract

Changes in the way hunger is tackled in Ethiopia have significant implications for its estimated 8.8 million chronically and acutely food‐insecure people. This article compares findings from the new Productive Safety‐Net Programme (PSNP) in two districts where Save the Children‐UK is a PSNP implementing partner or has its own cash‐based livelihood‐development programme. Evidence from the first year suggests that shifting from food to cash transfer programmes has implications for targeting and for the availability and price of food in local markets, especially in remote, deficit areas, and therefore requires a range of complementary measures, if the programmes are to be successful.
