The World Bank’s Africa Region Gender Innovation Lab (GIL) <http://www.worldbank.org/en/programs/africa-gender-innovation-lab>  is seeking a survey firm to collect endline data for an impact evaluation of the Nigeria National Social Safety Nets Project (NASSP). As a federal-level program with partnership with the States; NASSP provided targeted regular cash transfers along with behavior changing training and top-up incentives to poor and vulnerable households identified through the national social registry. The conditional cash transfer Households Uplifting Program (HUP) was aimed to cover one million beneficiary households across 24 states before 2021. Additionally; NASSP piloted a complementary livelihood component to support households to pursue sustainable income generating activities. The pilot livelihood intervention was layered with a rigorous randomized impact evaluation with the aims of - 1) testing which packages deliver impact among - a basic cash transfer and savings group formation training package versus a human capital top-up package; versus a livelihoods package top-up on household consumption and poverty and intimate partner violence reduction; 2) comparing the cost-effectiveness of two alternative delivery mechanisms for the livelihoods package; 3) evaluating the impacts of alternative strategies to select the productive member for the livelihoods package; and 4) estimating whether having a household-level intervention to stimulate collaborative decision-making changes the identity of the selected household member and the effectiveness of the livelihoods package.
