Description

The intended overall impact is the improved access of the population, particularly vulnerable groups, to a basic level of social transfers and services Expected outcomes • Outcome 1: Inter-agency coordination and promotion of global advocacy efforts with regards to the social protection floor. • Outcome 2: Support national stakeholders with the stocktaking and mapping of the existing social protection situation. • Outcome 3: Undertake analyses of costs and potential benefits of SPF components, which would contribute to the discussion on required and available fiscal space, and will support national and social dialogue processes on the priorities and sequencing of social protection provisions. • Outcome 4: Build national capacity within institutions/ ministries/structures/local organizations to better design and implement Social Protection Floor benefits and services. • Outcome 5: Document and share knowledge of social protection experiences among national stakeholders, UN agencies and technical and financial development partners Direct recipients: Governments and public institutions (primarily relevant ministries and social security institutions), employers’ and workers’ organizations, and other national key stakeholders involved in the decision-making or implementation process of building national SPFs. Participation will depend on the country context. Ultimate beneficiaries: the overall population; especially vulnerable groups and women who will benefit from better access to newly introduced or improved social protection schemes. As women are particularly affected by interrupted biographies, precarious working relationships and working in the informal economy, particular attention will be paid to promoting a gender-sensitive approach in introducing SPF elements at country levels
