ASEAN adopts a Declaration on Strengthening Social Protection

ILO Bangkok

On 9 October 2013, in Brunei Darussalam, the ten ASEAN Leaders adopted a Declaration on Strengthening Social Protection. It reaffirms the Member States' commitment to build an ASEAN community socially responsible and people oriented by 2015 by, notably, fostering social protection floors  in the region. The Declaration is closely aligned with the guiding principles prescribed by the Social Security (Minimum Standards) Convention, 1952 (No.102) and the Social Protection Floors Recommendation, 2012 (No.202).
