The Compendium on Integrating Social Policies and Delivery of Social Protection Floors is a result of the technical workshop and the meeting of the reference group of experts on the same theme held at Siem Reap, Cambodia during 29-31 May 2013. The workshop was organised by ILO Bangkok and the Royal Government of Cambodia and saw participation from various countries in Asia and across the world who have worked in the area of providing integrated social protection programmes and services. The Guide attempts to consolidate the experiences of these countries in order to increase outreach and efficiency, harmonise delivery and provide comprehensive social protection services and benefits.

The Compendium is divided into six chapters by thematic area.
