| Summary: | This discussion paper is the first
output under the umbrella of the programmatic work on social
protection in fragile and conflict-affected states. This
work aims to develop operational guidance to teams on the
likely determinants of effective social protection
programming and policy making in fragile and
conflict-affected settings. This paper elaborates on the
role of social protection programming, and programming
design and implementation features, that are prominent in
fragile and conflict-affected states. In particular, the
paper objectives in these countries, reflects on their
revealed objectives, and discusses programming options
chosen to achieve those objectives as well as how several
countries have overcome particular operational and capacity
constraints. This paper presents a methodology that has been
devised to group countries based on income, capacity, and
extent of enabling environment. Use of this methodology will
aid in understanding trends, patterns, and key factors in
policy making and programming choices, good and bad. |
