Abstract

There are proposals that social welfare services be developed in concert with expanding cash transfers to mitigate the impact of human immunodeficiency virus/acquired immune deficiency syndrome and poverty on children and families in sub-Saharan Africa. However much the target population might benefit from welfare services, the arguments for pairing services with transfers are not convincing. Cash transfers are best implemented as rights-based entitlements that express the social contract between citizen and state, rather than as a welfare response to need.
