Social safety nets are a set of non-contributory transfer programs that generally target people in chronic or transitory poverty and vulnerable groups to help improve their living conditions and protect them from shocks.

They have positive short-term effects and a positive medium-term impact on beneficiaries because they allow:

- to make generally non-contributory transfers available to them,

- facilitate their access to health and education services and

- encourage them to undertake economic development or income-generating activities.

Under the World Bank-funded Social Nets Project in Cameroon, SAILD is implementing the third component: Labor-intensive public works. Thus since 2016, SAILD is the technical partner for the implementation of Cash For Work.

Cash for work consists of the execution of work in return for a fee. It allows:

- to open up and sanitize the targeted councils through works carried out by the beneficiaries;

- to contribute to the creation of relatively stable jobs for vulnerable people thanks to the remuneration received;

- to remain with an equipment for the work of communities.
