Sustainability of a Cash Transfer Program in Malawi: A CANCaRe Africa “Zero Abandonment” Pilot
Four years after initial funding ended, the cash transfer intervention remained active with sustained reductions in treatment abandonment. These findings highlight the potential for sustained impact of financial support programs in low-resource settings. Further research is needed to identify the key determinants of sustainability, informing future scale-up efforts.
