Enabling graduation for whom? Identifying and explaining heterogeneity in livelihood trajectories post‐cash transfer exposure

Abstract

Abstract We use a data set from a graduation programme in Rwanda to explore the heterogeneous livelihood pathways that programme participants follow during and after the programme period. We show that household characteristics, such as gender of household head and labour availability, will affect trajectories of change; yet, the impact of initial resources will depend on what outcomes are being measured and possible complementarities between them. This reinforces the importance of a multi‐sectoral strategy for supporting livelihoods. We conclude that certain types of households need longer on a programme, as well as additional support to local enabling factors to support graduation. Copyright © 2018 John Wiley & Sons, Ltd.
