What matters when assessing the cost of
SP Targets and monitoring their progress?
1)Towards Universal Coverage – No one is left out
What are the needs for SP ?
Is everyone covered in case of loss of income and
insufficient means?
Does everyone have access to health care ?
2)Towards Adequate Social protection

 Taking into account need to scale up resources
to pay for benefits of all kinds and to invest into

How to better engage with other
government ministries beyond Ministry of Labour?
100 Countries Reducing Universal Food and Fuel Subsidies
sometimes targeted safety nets to the poor as compensation
-- insufficient, punishing “middle classes”
Fuel Subsidies in %GDP selected countries, 2012 or latest

FINANCING SOCIAL PROTECTION
Fiscal policy space options exist
even in the poorest countries
1) Increasing social insurance coverage for self-financed
contributory benefits for those who can afford their social
protection
2) Re-allocating public expenditures (eg subsidies)
3) Better taxation systems  increasing central tax revenues
4) Increased aid and central budget transfers to support national
priorities for sustainable state capacities … especially in fragile states
requiring kicking off SP institutions
5) Fighting illicit financial flows
6) Tapping into fiscal and foreign exchange reserves
7) Debt restructuring to allow investment into SP bringing back
economic and fiscal returns
8) Adopting a more accommodative macroeconomic framework
