The working paper "Cash and Small Business Groups for Ugandans and Refugees" details learnings from the IRC and IKEA Foundation's Re:BUiLD programme, and finds that cash grants substantially improve business outcomes for men, women, refugees, and hosts. Combining mentorship with cash has an additional positive effect for refugee men, but a negative effect relative to cash alone for women who run higher-profit businesses. Mentors with higher baseline profits significantly improve mentees' business outcomes, while differences across group gender and nationality compositions are small. The shared fate addition worsens early outcomes in aligned groups but does not affect mixed groups.
