Page 2 Overview DFID Definition DFID Policy Evolution on Social Protection 2009 White Paper Commitments Social Protection in Practice: Translating the White Paper into Action Social Protection: The Challenges Opportunities for Interagency Collaboration.

Page 3 Definition of Social Protection A set of public actions – carried out by the state, civil society or privately, that: a) Enable people to deal more effectively with risk and their vulnerability to crises and changes in circumstances and, a) Help tackle chronic poverty and social exclusion

Page 4 Social Protection Instruments DFID recognises four components of SP: Social assistance, non-contributory regular and predictable transfers contributory social insurance, payable following a shock; setting and enforcing minimum standards to protect citizens within the workplace; and access to social welfare services, including child protection.

Page 5 DFID Policy Evolution on Social Protection 2006 White Paper: Recognised SP as a right and an essential basic service. Commitments to increase support in 10 countries; : SP mainstreamed across policies – HIV/AIDS, Health, Social Exclusion, Agriculture, Humanitarian, Disaster Risk Reduction; 2009 Social Protection in the context of the downturn: monitoring and supporting global responses WP: focus on global interconnectedness. Emphasis on the role of SP in responding to the downturn and mainstreaming.

Page White Paper Commitments Help build SP systems to get help to 50 million poor people in over 20 countries over the next three years; SP for those who cannot feed themselves; Help countries plan for climate change, including better access to SP measures; Ensure the UN and multilaterals focus on the poorest countries, fragile states and most vulnerable people; Continue to spend half of future direct support for developing countries on basic services.

Page 7 Social Protection in Practice: Translating the White Paper into Action New Poverty Response Team In the context of the financial downturn: Monitoring the impact of the crisis on the poorest - including £1 million support to the GIVAS £200 million support to the Rapid Social Response Facility Developing policy position on ensuring support to the new poor whilst continuing to support the chronically poor Building Back Better – developing systems and bridging the gap between short and long term

Page 8 Social Protection in Practice: Translating the White Paper into Action Currently supporting SP initiatives in over 30 countries, regional policy development and dialogue (AU, ASEAN) and S-S learning; Planned - £150m/yr on SP, employment and related interventions; Developing the evidence base: £10 million on cost and affordability, mechanisms, impacts; Supporting a global agreement on what social protection is!; Exploring the ‘Social Protection Floor’
