| description |
East Asia and the Pacific is a
particularly diverse region. It includes some of the largest
and most populated countries in the world such as China and
Indonesia as well as small Pacific islands. Over the past
decade, there has been a growing interest in undertaking
reforms to strengthen social protection systems in the
region, not only as crisis response tools. The primary
objective of this study is to provide a comparative review
of the financing, structure and performance of social
protection programs in the East Asia region. The region is
very diverse and this study seeks to enhance understanding
of regional expenditure patterns in social protection, and
to provide insights in the performance of social assistance
programs in particular. Regional studies of this kind are
challenging for a number of reasons, and this particular
study was no exception. The performance of social assistance
programs will be measured in terms of coverage, targeting
accuracy, generosity of the benefit levels and impacts on
poverty and inequality. The report uses data from household
surveys to assess the performance of social assistance
programs. There are, however, some important data related
caveats to keep in mind when interpreting the results. |
