Résumé (anglais)

This document is the first global Social Protection Strategic Framework launched by UNICEF. It presents UNICEF's approach to social protection, makes the case for child-sensitive interventions, promotes the development and strengthening of integrated social protection systems, discusses the importance of a multi-sector approach that maximizes linkages for improving sector outcomes, and discusses current debates including social protection financing, expansion of coverage, and inclusive design. Moreover, the Framework proposes a collaborative policy agenda for social protection including UNICEF's potential role as a platform to engage development partners in leveraging social protection for children.
