Beneficiary Reference Group - Tearfund Kenya
"People know from the manyatas, maybe their elders have told them, that so and so has been selected [as a beneficiary] but when they saw the names [on the notice board] they were satisfied and knew it was true, and everything was confirmed. And the person selected knew they were among the group."
