The Tokens contain the required instruction on the back side, providing information regarding the access to and use of the Complaint and Feedback Mechanism (CFM). . 
To ensure full transparency and accountability, the project team will establish Compliant amp Feedback Mechanism (CFM) in the project locations. The mechanism will include provision of free mobile number and email address, putting complaint/suggestion boxes in various locations and providing opportunity to beneficiaries to raise issues and concerns directly through meetings and face to face contacts. All the complaints will be responded to on time. DAATTT will also share AWAZ hotline number with the target beneficiaries to ensure that they could make directly contact to AWAZ team. DAARTT will also involve Shura Members/Community Elders in the process of beneficiary selection and distribution of assistance.
