1. What is the impact of large, unconditional cash transfers on refugee households for outcomes such as income, assets, consumption, enterprise, food security and psychological wellbeing?
2. What do any changes caused by the cash transfers mean for the lives of refugee households and how did those changes come about?
3. What is the effect of cash transfers on host communities, and their relationship with the refugee communities?
