    Abstract
    UNHCR uses Post Distribution Monitoring (PDM) as a mechanism to collect feedback from the people with and for whom we work on the quality, sufficiency, utilization and effectiveness of the assistance they receive. The underlying principle of the process is accountability, as well as a commitment to improving the quality and relevance of support provided, and related services. UNHCR increasingly uses cash based interventions (CBIs) as a preferred modality for delivering assistance, offering greater dignity and choice to displaced people in line with UNHCR’s core protection mandate. In order to ensure that the cash assistance provided meets the intended objectives and that desired outcomes are achieved, UNHCR conducts regular post-distribution and outcome monitoring with a sample of refugee recipients residing across the country.

    This PDM was conducted with 64 respondent covering people who received CBI in China in 2023.
