As the cash transfer programme for girls’ education in Niger and Sokoto has entered the second year of
implementation, there is a need to better understand how the program me has been implemented as well as what
impact it has had thus far.
This evaluation would also provide lessons not just for the government in terms of how to carry out such
programmes and how to expand it but also to UNICEF, DFID and other stakeholders in closing the knowledge gap
in in terms of what works, where in Nigeria, how and why? Also to identify the specific enabling and risk factors
associated with the Cash Transfer programme in Niger and Sokoto. As the Federal Government is thinking of
providing cash transfer to promote education, some of the lessons learned from this evaluation will also inform
into their programmes.
The evaluation will also provide an opportunity for UNICEF to provide information on its performance and thus
serve an accountability purpose.
