Cash transfer programmes have expanded rapidly across low-income and middle-income countries (LMICs), from eight countries with programmes in 1960 to 134 countries in 2019, and have demonstrated effectiveness in improving a range of human capital outcomes.1, 2 However, despite their proliferation, progress against poverty has stalled—or even reversed—since the COVID-19 pandemic.³ Many programmes now stand at a crossroads, as policy makers decide whether to scale them back due to fiscal constraints or expand them.
