Description
The programme focuses on the two areas of social protection and employment through public investment. The goal is that national governments use appropriate, well designed and well managed social protection measures and employment promoting approaches to the delivery of public investments in order to promote resilience, access to services and employment opportunities for poor and vulnerable people, contributing to Inclusive Economic Growth. The Irish Aid-ILO programme contributes to the Programme & Budget 2016-2017 Outcome 3 and also to ILO’s Flagship programme on building social protection floors for all, which provides a coherent framework for ILO’s support to the implementation of social protection floors following as step-by-step approach in 21 countries. The Irish Aid Social Protection Strategy has identified six strategic priorities which need to be in place for social protection programmes to have maximum impact: 1. A strong and context specific evidence base on the delivery and impact of social protection; 2. A well informed political and public debate on social protection; 3. Institutional capacity for the core functions of effectively and efficiently delivering social protection transfers; 4. A comprehensive national social protection policy and a prioritised implementation plan; 5. A sustainable and progressively domestically funded social protection financing framework; 6. A supportive framework of policies and programmes across economic and social sectors that address the needs of social protection recipients.Level components
