Social protection

Social protection is not just a safety net against the vagaries of life, such as unemployment, illness or disability. Social protection is also a powerful tool for redistributing national wealth, helping to reduce poverty and strengthen social cohesion. What’s more, it proves to be a crucial bulwark against economic, health or climatic crises, ensuring the resilience of economies and populations alike.

Achieving these objectives will require the involvement of all economic stakeholders in the region and the establishment of effective governance. Furthermore, it is imperative to establish constant dialogue between the various stakeholders, both socially and financially, and in the areas of health, to ensure the population’s adherence to this essential social contract.

Our on-stage experts explored the issues of universal health coverage and the sustainable financing of social protection through fascinating exchanges.

Watch the replay of the show and its stimulating discussions and constructive exchanges on the future of social protection and universal health coverage.
