Development Pathways: Targeting Evaluation of the Somalia Shock-Responsive Safety Net for Human Capital Project (SNHCP)
Development Pathways: Targeting Evaluation of the Somalia Shock-Responsive Safety Net for Human Capital Project (SNHCP)

January 2023

Samuel Hall, in partnership with Development Pathways, conducted a targeting evaluation of the Shock-responsive Safety Net for Human Capital Project (SNHCP) for the World Bank and the Somali Ministry of Labour and Social Affairs (MoLSA). The team assessed one major component of the SNHCP, which is to provide nutrition-linked unconditional cash transfers to vulnerable households in all states in Somalia and Somaliland.

The findings confirm that despite being implemented in an extremely challenging environment, the SNHCP cash transfer programme has successfully reached many vulnerable and poor households. Moving forward, by learning from the targeting errors identified, this programme provides important learning points for similar cash transfer programmes in the future.

ILO – Integrated Labour Market Assessment in Jigjiga and Kebribeyah: A Marketplace in Between Resilience and Integration
ILO – Integrated Labour Market Assessment in Jigjiga and Kebribeyah: A Marketplace in Between Resilience and Integration

December 2020

Building on previous ILO work conducted in the Ethiopian regions and in Dadaab, Kenya, the study analysed labour market opportunities and constraints for refugees and hosts in Jigjiga, Somali State through the prism of the Labour Market System (LMS). The analysis is conducted through the lens of decent work opportunities. This means that the study focuses on both the quantity and quality of jobs available for host communities and refugees. As such, the focus is not solely on unemployment patterns, but also and more crucially on the type of jobs occupied by host communities and refugees to measure decent work. Building on the Jijiga study, Samuel Hall was subsequently contracted to replicate the research in the Tigray regional state.

World Bank - Impact of Refugees on Hosting Communities in Ethiopia

August 2020

Commissioned by the World Bank, Samuel Hall (SH) is conducting an analysis of the social dynamics in refugee-hosting areas in Ethiopia. The study aims to help the Ethiopian government to put in place mechanisms to enable refugees to become more self-reliant and better integrated into society and the economy. By collecting data through qualitative methods, the objective of the project is to generate high quality evidence from the field on the social context in refugee-hosting areas and on the social impacts of refugees on hosts in three regions: Addis Ababa, Somali and Gambella regions.
