This technical report presents a systematic review and meta-analysis of the impacts of large one-off cash transfers on poverty and climate resilience outcomes in low- and lower-middle-income countries. Following Campbell Collaboration guidance, the review synthesises 19 impact-evaluation studies covering 15 interventions implemented between 2014 and 2024, mainly in Sub-Saharan Africa. It examines effects on household consumption and expenditure, income, assets, savings, food security, employment, business outcomes and climate-resilience indicators including irrigation, input use, adaptive capacity and livelihood diversification. The findings indicate reliable poverty-reduction effects, but more limited and mixed evidence on climate resilience without complementary support.
