Social protection is not just a safety net against the hazards 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 is 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.
