Increasing aid effectiveness is a critical need for both donors and recipients. Issues around aid dollar leakage have weakened confidence in the aid system on both sides and have led to a search for alternatives to traditional distribution mechanisms. Making aid more transparent and less prone to waste requires accessible digital solutions that remove intermediaries from the distribution process who subtact rather than add value. The Vouch platform solves the problem faced by many institutions that cannot keep track of how cash is used by increasing transparency within aid distribution.
