Camp Coordination, Camp Management and Cash and Voucher Assistance
Find out more about Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) in relation to Cash and Voucher Assistance (CVA). For the most up to date information visit the Global CCCM Cluster’s website.
Camp Coordination and Camp Management (CCCM) works to ensure equitable access to services and protection for displaced persons living in communal settings, improving their quality of life and dignity, and advocating for solutions while preparing them for life after displacement. CVA is a valuable instrument for achieving this goal, not only in urban areas but also in rural settings and camps, where markets can evolve dynamically as populations become larger and more settled. As well as helping to improve site facilities, CVA also promotes peaceful coexistence with the surrounding host population as more funds benefit the local economy.
