Intervention by UN and INGOs

Lessons Learnt

Assessment: i) Union level D form completion & collection took time, no validation sought

from the Governmentii) Triggering mechanism for assessment needs to be transparent, predictable &

timely Approvals: Opportunity to make it more context appropriate and responsive

(FC1/FD6/FD7)Beneficiary Selection: Involvement of local officials important but took timeFunding: Insufficient resources compared to the needField Level Coordination: District Focal Point System not yet established for

better response coordinationMoney Withdrawal from Mobile Account: Beneficiaries face problems for

timely withdrawal
