| description |
The definition of social protection (SP)
programs varies widely, as do the types of interventions
included and the specific outcomes sought. These programs
can be implemented through public and/or private sectors,
with the involvement of single or multiple government
sectors, or by some combination of these actors. This brief
will specifically focus on four types of social protection
interventions: social assistance, social insurance, labor
market programs, and early childhood development. It will
offer suggestions for integrating violence against women and
girls (VAWG) prevention efforts within these interventions.
These areas of focus are meant to be illustrative of
different social protection programs, rather than to reflect
the full breadth of SP programs. In general, SP programs are
public interventions that support the poorest populations
and assist individuals, households, and communities to
better overcome social and economic risks. Examples of
programs include: a) social assistance (social safety nets):
cash transfers, school feeding, and targeted food
assistance; b) social insurance: old-age and disability
pensions and unemployment insurance; c) labor market
programs: skills-building programs, job-search and matching
programs, and improved labor regulations; and d) early
childhood development. Other program interventions, which
fall under what is referred to as social protection, aim to
strengthen families abilities to respond to hardships by
promoting gender equality. Examples include early childhood
development, projects that focus on at-risk youth, or
targeted poverty alleviation programs. |
