Can you share a study that says cash is better than cash + skills? I looked but didn’t find one (but may not have looked thoroughly enough!)

There are others too I’m pretty sure. Evidence is mixed on this one.
I suspect that the effectiveness of the integrated cash and training interventions will depend heavily on the type of training provided.
