Project properties
ETH/15/50/OUF Africa Ethiopia MPTF/UNDP Completed This project is part of the Global Flagship Programme on Building Social Protection Floors for All
Description
The activities and policy initiatives will help the government to smoothly implement the social protection policy, by providing the necessary technical and financial capacity - building support at the national, regional, and sub-regional levels. The activities build upon and expand on existing work planned and executed over the year. The first output, as per the above, will support the institutionalization and coordination of the Social Protection sector at the Federal Level to build a Social Protection System, and ensure that it is properly linked with other policies and plans and does not duplicate those. It is intended to help strengthen the Ministry of Labor and Social Affairs to finalize and roll out the Social Protection Policy. The second output intends to help the Government roll out the Social Protection to the different regions in Ethiopia; the country is federal. Specific interventions here will build regional capacity to undertake the necessary planning and costing steps to implement the national policy. The third output is intended to build the institutional and coordination capacities on social protection services at the sub-regional and to enhance citizenry participation in decision-making and accountability processes in order to achieve social inclusion.SDG
