Abstract

To address the needs of young adolescent girls who have been prone to school drop-outs, early marriages and GBV due to the impact of COVID-19, CARE will be targeting the parents of a total of 2,500 girls to benefit from cash transfers with the aim to keep them in school. In addition, CARE will provide awareness raising on COVID-19 mitigation and prevention, and implications on school dropouts.
