The objective of the Morocco COVID-19 Social Protection Emergency Response Project is to mitigate the negative impacts of the COVID-19 crisis by providing and strengthening emergency cash transfer programs to support poor and marginalized households. The project includes four components: (1) Tadamon, an emergency cash transfer program that provides financial support to informal sector workers, (2) Tayssir, a cash transfer program that provides financial support to poor families to help keep children in school and reduce the number of dropouts, (3) institutional improvements to the cash transfer programs and support for the creation and eventual implementation of a Family Allowance Program, and (4) contingency emergency response. 

The project aims include effective targeting and coverage of beneficiaries, enhancing the efficiency and transparency of social protection programs, promoting financial inclusion, and mitigating the adverse effects of the pandemic on the most marginalized groups in Moroccan society. The project seeks to implement a comprehensive and responsive social protection system that can provide immediate relief and pave the way for long-term resilience in the face of future crises.
