Behrendt, Christina, Mira Bierbaum, Tomoo Okubo, Shahra Razavi, David Stewart, Natalia Winder-Rosse & Veronika Wodsak, Mar 2022, Financing universal social protection systems: An urgent priority for inclusive and sustainable recovery, socialprotection.org, A hopeful sign in the COVID-19 pandemic has been the crucial role that social protection has played, evident in the unprecedented policy response worldwide with social protection and jobs measures pursued by virtually all countries and territories, albeit with staggering inequalities in countries’ response capacity. Undoubtedly, without this massive and rapid expansion of social protection, based on strong political will and commitment, the human and socio-economic toll of the crisis would have been much greater. While all these extra measures have been incredibly valuable, they were also mostly temporary, and there is little sign of increased long-term investment in social spending to the extent that will be required to build back better after the COVID-19 crisis. Many countries now find themselves at a crossroads with regard to the future orientation of their national social protection strategies and systems. Going forward, without strategies to build and finance sustainable social protection systems, create decent jobs, and formalize enterprises and employment, these programmes will remain just that: temporary and unsustainable, More information
Bierbaum, Mira, Veronika Wodsak & Christina Behrendt, May 2022, Social protection and decent work – harnessing an integrated approach for a human-centred recovery and sustainable development, socialprotection.org, The multiple crises we are currently confronted with, including the COVID-19 pandemic, violent conflicts, climate change and environmental degradation, painfully remind us of everyone’s vulnerability to shocks and lifecycle risks. Workers in the informal economy and their families are particularly vulnerable, not least because of their lack of access to social protection. Investing in social protection and employment policies is critical for a more inclusive recovery, decent work and a just transition to environmentally sustainable economies and societies, More information
