SDC Cash Secondments

SDC Cash Secondments

Since 2009, the SDC/HA has supported the UN system through secondments of cash experts from the SHA (Swiss Humanitarian Aid Unit) roster. The aim of these secondments is to assist UN agencies and other partners in institutionalizing and qualitatively improving CVA. 

To date, Swiss experts have been deployed on almost 100 secondments with the World Food Programme (WFP), the UN High Commissioner for Refugees (UNHCR), the UN Relief and Works Agency for Palestine Refugees (UNRWA), the United Nations Children's Fund (UNICEF), International Organization for Migration (IOM), the International Committee of the Red Cross (ICRC), the International Federation of the Red Cross and Red Crescent Societies (IFRC),  the Swiss Red Cross (SRC), Helvetas, Caritas Switzerland, the Cash Learning Partnership (CaLP), the Global Wash Cluster (GWC), the Global Education Cluster (GEC) and a local actor.
