This document summarizes evidence on the relative impacts of cash transfers versus in-kind food assistance on child nutrition outcomes. It finds that on average, the impacts of cash and food transfers are similar, with cash being more effective in 48% of cases studied and food in 36%. However, neither approach consistently leads to improvements in nutrition metrics like height. While both increase food expenditures, additional barriers like quality of health services need to be addressed. The document also examines examples of mixed cash-food systems and notes no single approach is superior in all contexts.
