00:00:00
are asked cash with price is to mine
00:00:05
so now we ask uh what he to guess at the big picture and to talk model and i think
00:00:15
given in
00:00:17
um no
00:00:19
the t. i. yes
00:00:24
well it's good of this yet
00:00:36
right i went right on good morning i'm is like in the really grace you are the last one that
00:00:45
town is giving to you and i have to recover time so i try to do that um
00:00:51
what really and we'd be getting too it's it's something which is on everybody's mind
00:00:55
we talk about the then we shy away from it so what online is what we
00:01:01
would like to do is to start a conversation which is already going on
00:01:05
which takes as the old cash as a delivery arrangement on and we can start focusing
00:01:11
hopefully the next call conversation or meeting we can talk about what is cash plus
00:01:17
and what we do so we come out of simple aspects of loving cash and but it is good on
00:01:25
first i would like to sort of a talking a bit about the models and
00:01:28
demystify what it means um today we we we consider many things as model
00:01:35
um we focus on the way forward and why is it is important that we come out of a discussion
00:01:42
which is focused on models and the state start talking
00:01:46
about standards on the delivery of catches it's
00:01:51
now would use so
00:01:54
this one which is basically a normal program management cycle is
00:01:59
no different to any of the humanitarian organisations use
00:02:03
what i'm trying to get over here is this cycle as ulysses is hardly
00:02:09
there's any difference between this and the one b. two fourteen can't
00:02:13
what is the difference in this cycle is basically is one element well is the one
00:02:19
which is marked and going to bat box which is the delivery of cash
00:02:23
now that is the point where most of the efficiency conversation today is taking place
00:02:30
and that's what they are also a lot of discussion face or pensions arrives who controls it
00:02:38
who has the best delivery system who can deliver a cheaper and therefore by white that organisation or
00:02:45
though that agency should be the single delivery agency of so that becomes part of the question
00:02:53
what we have seen is that and be we think about all humanitarian
00:02:59
assistance efficiency not efficiency around that's what we would like to see
00:03:05
when we start reducing tension around that delivery reach me that
00:03:10
we'd turn it into an element of common good
00:03:16
be start creating collaboration rounded the implication of it
00:03:21
what we have seen in some places many
00:03:23
places will be up try to use it it creates efficiencies for the down payment
00:03:28
because there is more conversions because the process is more or less
00:03:31
the same if we're seeking conversions around assessment for example
00:03:37
by reducing tension around delivery it brings us to get if
00:03:42
you are trying to create convergence around targeting by the
00:03:45
ruling detention round delivery it does that what we're saying
00:03:49
is that it's an important element in the equation
00:03:52
delivery off assistance and it is taking a lot of attention and there are different ways of dealing with
00:04:00
now in order to get to the efficiency which seems to be the major concern obviously one thing we need to guess
00:04:06
why is economies of scale without scroll economies of scale efficiency
00:04:11
doesn't count this we can achieve in two weeks
00:04:15
either we go to root of competition that is one agency takes it all
00:04:21
or we go to a system of collaboration that we create
00:04:27
common delivery arrangements meeting that we create this say level off
00:04:33
efficiencies by creating conversion sees and removing duplications
00:04:39
now in order to do that to that um we look into what how this to collaboration versus
00:04:46
competition arrangement can work or does work and we do use a couple of examples of you
00:04:53
us your couple of years ago started contemplating with how can
00:04:57
be move away from the discussion of models and how
00:05:00
we can move to words something which resembles the standards on delivery regions and in order to do that
00:05:08
we establish certain standards and each went out in the market and
00:05:12
started looking into and you started from jordan large scale
00:05:15
and what we try to get to is that how we can remove pension as well
00:05:20
controls the delivery arrangement can we make it into common good as i said earlier
00:05:26
and treat it as pipeline of delivery cash which is available
00:05:31
to organisations and donors equally on people and our bases
00:05:38
in order to could encourage collaboration along the entire program side
00:05:43
not around one element that around entire programs like
00:05:47
and in doing that then creates space for the private sector and the government
00:05:52
to step in in the right role they need to take couple
00:05:55
and therefore in doing that what we have created gone for the standards how to make sure that
00:06:02
that private sector knows what we want and therefore it can stop up and provide that
00:06:09
what's the common requirement and then in the process of doing this removing the gatekeeper function
00:06:16
making it into easy entry easy exit plug and play if possible that's what people are looking for
00:06:23
so in case of jordan be tried that it's not perfect but nevertheless it's tries to
00:06:28
get out of the box of thinking on a rip your something from my agency
00:06:33
and we want to go uh now say beep you or it
00:06:37
doesn't matter if one agency with yours what everybody because is
00:06:41
after all a banking system is the pipeline doesn't matter how much cash to put throw it is going to deliver
00:06:48
it is insensitive to whether you're delivering for i. p. p.'s refugees
00:06:52
nationals yeah it's this is a is a delivery system
00:06:57
so now in order to do that in jordan what we have done established it and nine organisations over
00:07:04
a period of one year came in one hundred and sixteen million dollars travel through the system
00:07:10
bending charges which some of the smaller organisations was paid as as
00:07:14
high as five percent drop to two point two percent
00:07:18
it for the drop to one point six six seven percent when other organisations joined because
00:07:24
it to your costing arrangement which works for more volume less cost for everybody
00:07:30
now this we are hoping to take yawned and grease is our next target be able to take it
00:07:37
bottom line be believe fundamentally in efficiency gains but we also believe that efficiency gaze
00:07:43
through collaboration is possible and what is missing is a common to the rearrangement
00:07:50
now we're looking to the competition now we looked around
00:07:55
really couldn't find a competition model is such that
00:07:58
closely to be came and and coming out of it with due respect i'm not going to be
00:08:03
yeah provocative but i had to discuss uh the echo model or a cool guy that's not what
00:08:10
you have what it is it's reactive so what what it does for
00:08:17
indian or fairness is it tries to create economies of scale
00:08:23
how about it tries to create economies of scale bar
00:08:28
wanting one organisation to deliver the whole of the cash assistance
00:08:34
rather than one deliveries deadwood doing which is collaboration it creates but in
00:08:38
order to get the you need to compete that's that's a constant
00:08:42
but that it takes is one step further and what it's so say is is that not only
00:08:47
you do that but for television ceased can be
00:08:49
achieved if organisations do a certain specific function
00:08:55
delivering cash assessment and targeting and then monitoring being set to
00:09:01
we try that on and this model i mean if i if i look
00:09:06
into it i couldn't find an example but the model is fully uh
00:09:11
on both aspects implemented w. a. p. yes uh send you an e. c. r. in
00:09:16
greece the art shine or we are implementing the first part one contracting agency or
00:09:23
however when it comes to separating organisations
00:09:28
being contracted separated for function that
00:09:31
has not so far from too so we can't talk about it
00:09:35
however what we see is that began our system and that's what the bleep
00:09:39
he was saying even if it is that we'll be taking the resources
00:09:42
there is a very meticulously of segregation within that system and
00:09:47
that is more and more becoming the standard with
00:09:50
no messages so it doesn't need to be necessarily impose it is happening already
00:09:56
now we have done and lots of homework and if you can go to the next slide
00:10:03
yes
00:10:06
this is where we tried to reconcile we try to see if we want
00:10:10
to apply the requirement of over one of very important don't respect or
00:10:15
to maintain that come to believe two words people especially from protection perspective for you what is your
00:10:22
so the shape possibly top the components of a cool guidance
00:10:27
and we found ourselves first some of the components more probably show up model missing
00:10:33
so the question was where we put them how we deal but then who is going to be accountable responsible for it
00:10:39
and then what you see there were number of question marks on how the connections happen and
00:10:44
i think all of that we have shared with the at the last consultation with that
00:10:48
to the bottom line is that that's one way of doing it
00:10:51
you could also achieve economies of scale through creating competition
00:10:57
it's collaboration is not only
00:11:01
now
00:11:03
moving forward and trying to look into finding solutions and what could be
00:11:10
different we're working we believe that in order to maximise efficiency potential
00:11:18
and make cash fit for future
00:11:21
so it can be applied in at three context not only large context medium
00:11:26
context smaller context having different models one will do we can potentially create
00:11:34
economies of scale by focusing on creating one paper towel if
00:11:40
you want to call it standards i don't deliver
00:11:44
private sector if we could come up with standards on what is that
00:11:48
we want from the market collectively in terms of delivering cash
00:11:54
i've had discussions with private sector many critics and uh
00:11:58
all say if humanitarian sector today would tell us
00:12:01
what is that you need to collectively we would know what to innovate for
00:12:07
we would know how the technology should move but do we have one common stand
00:12:14
right now we go to the market and you see what is available there we want to turn the
00:12:19
conversation around what this is what we expect from the market can you give it to us
00:12:25
what are the advantages advantages that in future you don't have to think about how we have with this
00:12:31
go and do the emergency cash transfer because we don't know who to contact
00:12:36
be have problems with doing prepared that's because preparedness because for planning for running requires you need
00:12:42
to know exactly what you would do otherwise private sector is not able to respond
00:12:47
what we want to get something along the lines of common cash facility because name it anything we want
00:12:52
and any organisation should be able to set it up whosoever is on the ground is best place
00:12:58
be able to say to the private sector the private sector knowing this is what i need to have
00:13:04
into place for humanitarian support you want it to be attractive to that you meant to say
00:13:10
if we have that then you're talking does this and be a changing the dynamics the way it works
00:13:16
otherwise people constantly keep on focusing on what are the modalities all the models that
00:13:22
we all talk about and be normally get very caught up introvert preferences
00:13:29
without the or the standards we will stay in the model and work and you're going to have
00:13:35
escalation of more this may increase destruction but it
00:13:40
will not increase efficiency in fact that's
00:13:47
we need to deliver cash phase assistance differently
00:13:52
possibly cheaper
00:13:54
if we do that then if we only focus on you have
00:13:58
to deliver cash assistance cheaper faster and get missed the point
00:14:04
we have to really start looking at the value added of church
00:14:08
value added of caches that financial inclusion access to finance
00:14:13
remittances these other areas we want to move it
00:14:17
and the real value added of trash for example for us you know the fact that look at opposition is
00:14:23
cash as a white to ingredient of protection comprehensive
00:14:28
reduce owns solutions social safety net social protection
00:14:34
but to get the be need to stop thinking about about preferred
00:14:39
mortals and need to move about creating common shared standards
00:14:46
and on standards out again alert ourselves because we have a tendency of taking a perfectly good pain
00:14:52
and make it so complicated doesn't work it it it it to get out of that i would say let's not try to
00:14:58
just resolve every problem in the well and humanitarian sector that's focused
00:15:03
on one element and i set in the previous model
00:15:06
if we could address around delivery remove tension create
00:15:10
weren't it has ripple effect throughout the system
00:15:15
and we can do it is not so difficult you started showing it some of the countries
