UNHCR launched a one-time cash assistance scheme on the 2 February 2023 for some 1.4 million refugees in Pakistan who were affected by the devastating floods in 2022 as well as the prevailing economic situation. The assistance is being provided, in collaboration with the Government of Pakistan, to reach refugees who are not eligible to access social safety nets available to Pakistani citizens. The initiative is modelled on the Government’s emergency cash program for vulnerable Pakistani families affected by floods. More than 70% of the refugees were reached by mid of March with 4.18 billion Pakistani Rupees disbursed. 18% of the households assisted were female headed.
