The seven-year Social Support for Resilient Livelihoods Project (2020-2027) in Malawi is designed to improve resilience and build human capital among poor and vulnerable populations through social cash transfers (SCTs), livelihoods support, enhanced climate smart public works, as well as an option for scalable financing for SCTs to reach more disaster-affected households in times of weather-related disasters. At full scale, the project is expected to expand support from the current 490,984 beneficiary households to 778,000. The project has become a major tool for addressing multiple and overlapping crises in Malawi.

This multi-layered World Bank clip looks at many aspects of development: poverty reduction, climate change, social safety nets and natural disasters that mean that 75% of the country are living below the poverty line.
However, the World Bank's Social Support for Resilient Livelihoods Project is trying to tackle all of these problems - building human capital - via direct cash transfers and investment in climate-friendly public works. The hope is that such interventions will boost development, increase sustainability and make the economy more resilient.
