The document analyzes how cash transfer programs in Zimbabwe impact livelihood diversification and specialization. It finds that the cash transfers induce households to shift from mixed diversification involving casual labor to opportunity-led diversification engaged in both on-farm and non-farm activities. This increase in opportunity-led diversification leads to higher consumption expenditures. The impact is stronger for male-headed households, while the cash transfers do not significantly impact livelihood strategies for female-headed households.

HFG DRM for Health Workshop: IntroductionHFG Project
Recently, the Health Finance and Governance (HFG) Project organized a multi-country workshop to support policymakers from public health and finance agencies in developing concrete action plans for mobilizing domestic resources for health. Marty Makinen led an introduction presentation focusing on the importance of relationships between Ministries of Finance and Health in mobilizing domestic resources.
Follow the Money: Making the Most of Limited Health ResourcesHFG Project
Worldwide, health systems are being asked to do more with less. In many countries, donor funds have stagnated or are declining. This sharp decline could have broad implications for the health sector— particularly Namibia’s HIV and AIDS response which relies heavily on donor resources. New and emerging threats, such as Zika and Ebola, are also testing weak and fragile health systems, such as those in Guinea and Liberia. And costly noncommunicable diseases, like diabetes and cancers, are on the rise in low- and middle-income countries (LMICs).
With the end of the MDGs and start of the new SDGS, momentum is growing for countries around the world to pursue Universal Health Coverage (UHC) reforms and to expand affordable access to health care services, without risk of financial hardship, while facing real resource constraints in the aftermath of the global economic crisis.
In short, countries need to make their limited health resources go a long way. It is a financing challenge as well as a governance one. Countries cannot manage what they cannot measure. Countries need to measure their health spending – know where the money comes from, how much is spent and where, and how it can be spent more efficiently and equitably.
Policymakers can influence public and private health spending to improve efficiency, quality, equity, and expand access to life-saving health services. To succeed, however, governments need evidence around their health financing landscape. More and more, policymakers are appreciating the value of health resource tracking –that is, a range of methods, data collection initiatives, and estimation tools aimed at measuring the flow of funds to and through the health system.

Purchasing Power: 10 Lessons on Getting More Local, Sustainable, and Deliciou...Rad Fsc
Food Secure Canada and the J.W. McConnell Family Foundation are jointly releasing the report Purchasing Power: 10 Lessons on Getting More Local, Sustainable, and Delicious Food in Schools, Hospitals and Campuses. The lessons profile what we’ve learned about how to shift institutional food purchasing to sustainability–from defining local, to leveraging contracts, to building food cultures, to policy change–and what the opportunities are for scaling this work.
How do households balance risk and return when new economic opportunities arise? Can nancial-services interventions help households cope with the increased risk that often accompanies new, high-return opportunities? We randomly assigned rural households in Mozambique to subsidies for modern agricultural inputs, formal savings facilitation programs (either a \basic" or a \matched" savings program), or both sub-
sidy and savings programs. Households receiving only subsidies raised their subsequent consumption levels, but also faced greater risk (higher consumption variability). Households receiving both programs saw simi-
lar increases in consumption, but a much smaller increase in variability. This risk-reduction occurs alongside (and is possibly partly the result of) adjustments in broad \portfolios" of intertemporal activities (asset hold-
ings, borrowing, and investments). A program oering generous savings matches (without input subsidies) has similar impacts as the combination of basic savings and subsidies. While households appear willing to take
on the increased risk associated with high-return opportunities, facilitating formal savings can help households oset a substantial part of the increased risk.

Russian anarchist and anti-war movement in the third year of full-scale warAntti Rautiainen
Anarchist group ANA Regensburg hosted my online-presentation on 16th of May 2024, in which I discussed tactics of anti-war activism in Russia, and reasons why the anti-war movement has not been able to make an impact to change the course of events yet. Cases of anarchists repressed for anti-war activities are presented, as well as strategies of support for political prisoners, and modest successes in supporting their struggles.

2. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Motivation
Over the past twenty years, a growing number of African
governments have launched cash transfers programs.
They aim at reducing poverty and vulnerability by
improving consumption, nutrition, health status, school
attendance and educational outcomes (Fizbein et al. 2009;
Tirivayi et al. 2016).
Impact on livelihood strategies: diversification or
specialization?
3. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Motivation
Cash transfer programmes may have in principle an
ambiguous impact on livelihood diversification.
On the one hand, households have access to additional
monetary resources to be invested in income generating
activities - more diversification in other activities with
higher return.
On the other hand, household may reduce their
engagment in income generating activities characterized
by low return - more specialization.
4. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Objectives of the paper
Two main research questions:
1 Does a cash transfers program enhance or hinder livelihood
diversification versus specialization in a poor and rural
setting in Zimbabwe?
2 Does diversification increase household welfare measured
by consumption expenditure?
5. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Objectives of the paper
Contribution to the literature on both the determinants of
livelihood diversification and the impact of diversification
on household welfare.
We also incorporate a gender dimension by distinguishing
between female headed households (FHH) and male
headed households (MHH).
6. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Survival-led vs opportunity-led diversification
Households may diversify their livelihood strategy in
response to incentives that may be classified in push and
pull factors (Ellis, 2000; Reardon et al., 2006; Davis et al.,
2010).
Push factors drive a ’survival-led diversification’, i.e.
negative circumstances that may force households to seek
additional livelihood activities within or outside the farm
(Alobo Loison, 2016).
Pull factors drive an ’opportunity-led diversification.
Pull factors are positive circumstances which may attract
farm households to pursue additional livelihood activities
to improve their living standard (Reardon et al., 2006;
Winters et al., 2009).
7. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
The welfare impact of diversification in SSA
Positive relationship between non farm income and
household welfare indicators such as income, wealth,
consumption and nutrition (Alobo Loison, 2016; Barrett et
al., 2001; Ellis, 1998-2005).
This relationship is stronger for wealthier farm households
(Davis et al, 2009; Bezu et al., 2012).
Positive impact on farm productivity and food security
(Kelley et al., 1996; Dercon and Krishnan, 1996; Davis et al.,
2009).
Mixed results on rural income distribution: reduction of
income inequality (Adams, 2002) vs increase of income
inequality (Block and Webb, 2001).
8. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Description of the program
The Zimbabwe Harmonized Social Cash Transfer (HSCT)
Program is an unconditional cash transfer targeted to
food-poor and labor-constrained households.
Eligibility: labor-constrained families living below the
food poverty line are selected using ZIMSTATS household
census data.
In January 2015, the HSCT covered 52 500 households.
Transfer size ranges from USD 10 to 25, representing 20%
of median household consumption expenditure.
9. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Results from other studies
AIR 12-month impact evaluation report (AIR, 2014):
i Overall successful operational performance.
ii Wide range of social and economic benefits.
PtoP 12-month impact evaluation report (Dewbre et al.,
2015):
i Significant impacts on beneficiary agricultural activities:
increased production diversification, shift in input use,
livestock.
ii Significant increase of non-farm businesses.
Qualitative study (OPM, 2013):
i Reduction of casual labour, especially for children.
10. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Data
We use data collected for the impact evaluation of the
HSCT program conducted by the AIR (2014).
Data based on a twelve-month, longitudinal,
non-experimental design study.
Eligible households in Binga, Mwenzi ad Mudzi (treatment
group) enrolled in the program after completion of
baseline survey data collection (May-June 2013).
Eligible households in UMP, Chiredzi, and Hwange
(comparison group) were enrolled after follow-up data
collection (May-June 2014).
The final study sample comprises a panel of 2 630
households (1748 treated and 882 controls).
12. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Econometric model
The econometric method consists of two set of equations
linked via observed and unobserved characteristics:
a Choice of livelihood strategies;
b Impact of livelihood strategies on household welfare.
Following Deb and Trivedi (2006), we develop a model for
multinomial choice of livelihood strategies and a
continuous choice of household consumption expenditure.
13. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Econometric model
We specify a joint distribution of the endogeneous choice
of livelihood strategy and consumption expenditure using
a latent factor structure.
The livelihood strategy choice and the consumption
equations include an indicator for the HSCT treatment to
investigate the impact of cash transfers on both changes in
livelihood strategies and consumption expenditure.
14. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Main income generating activities
Notes:
Crop production: at least one crop in the past rainy season;
Livestock: livestock raised or owned in the past 12 months;
Casual labor (maricho): both on-farm and non-farm labor supplied on a casual basis;
Non-farm wage employment: at least one household member employed in wage, salary or commission on
a regular basis;
Non-farm self-employment: at least one household member owing a shop or operating a trading busines;
Remittances and other: remittances from relatives and friends and other public transfers (not including the
HSCT transfers).
15. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Specialization is mainly on farm - Diversification is
mainly survival-led
Notes:
Opportunity-led diversification: households engaged in both on-farm
and non-farm activities;
Survival-led diversification: households engaged in both on-farm
activities and casual labor;
Mixed diversification: households engaged in on-farm and non-farm
activities and on casual labor.
16. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Household size, education and distance to markets play a crucial role
17. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Indipendent variables and exclusion restrictions
Independent variables:
Inclusion in the HSCT treatment group;
Livelihood strategies at baseline;
Interactions between livelihood strategies at baseline and
treatment status;
Household demographic characteristics;
Lagged values of labor constraintes and land size;
Distance to the main markets.
Exclusion restrictions: lagged price levels of selected
agricultural products at baseline (maize, rice, beans, beef).
18. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Positive impact of the HSCT on opportunity-led
diversification which in turn increases consumption
19. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
No HSCT impact on livelihood strategies in FHH -
strong impact in MHH
20. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Conclusions
The HSCT program induces a switching between mixed
diversification at baseline to opportunity-led
diversification at follow-up.
This means that cash transfers induce households already
diversfying to abandon casual labor.
High degree of ”persistence” in livelihood strategies.
Cash tranfers increase non-food consumption expenditure
for households engaged in on-farm activities and on mixed
diversification at baseline.
Opportunity-led diversification and mixed diversification
at follow-up increase consumption expenditure for both
food and non-food.
21. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Conclusions
In MHHs:
The HSCT treatment increases the probability that
households engaged in mixed diversification at baseline
switch to opportunity-led diversification at follow-up.
The HSCT treatment reduces the probability that
male-headed households engaged in survival-led
diversification at baseline will mantain the same livelihood
strategy at follow-up.
Both effects imply a reduction of casual labor.
In FHHs:
The HSCT treatment does not seem to have any impact on
changes in livelihood strategies.
Other variables seem to play a role: education, labor
constraints and land size.
22. Motivation Literature Review HSCT Empirical analysis Conclusion
Conclusions
As far as the analysis of the livelihood strategy choices on
household welfare is concerned, the impact of the HSCT
treatment in FHHs is actually stronger than that on MHHs.
The treatment has a positive effect on non-food
consumption expenditure for FHHs that at baseline
engaged in on-farm activities or were engaged in mixed
diversification.
Treatment in MHHs does not seem to have any direct
impact on consumption expenditure.
In MHHs, the treatment seems to exert an effect on
consumption only through its impact on livelihood
strategies.
