Over the past two decades, social protection programmes have been implemented in many developing countries to reduce poverty and vulnerabilities in the face of context-specific challenges such as economic crises, inequality and exclusion, and human development deficits. 
The multidimensional vulnerabilities experienced by poor households affect children and young people in specific ways, but their needs often remain only partially visible or even invisible to policy-makers and those designing social protection programs and complementary interventions that tend to focus on the household unit.
This report presents findings from a mixed methods study of the effects of the Palestinian National Cash Transfer Programme on children and their families exploring impact across the four key dimensions of children´s rights recognized in the United Nations Conventions on the Rights of the Child (UNCRC): survival, development, protection and production.
