Technical support on social protection in Cameroon
Project properties
- Status: Completed
- This project is part of the Global Flagship Programme on Building Social Protection Floors for All
Description
The aim of this project is to establish a national social protection floor. Support will be provided to the tripartite constituents for the development and application of policies and tools that improve the quality and coverage of social protection with a focus on universal health coverage. Particular emphasis will be placed on providing access to health care for persons living with HIV/AIDS and on extending social protection to vulnerable groups such as workers in the informal economy, the rural sector, and youth. Interventions include the reinforcement of national tripartite dialogue on social protection matters and capacity building of the tripartite constituents in areas such as targeting of social protection services, non-discrimination, roles of employers’ and workers’ organizations, gender equality, and institutional and legal frameworks. The ratification of the Social Security (Minimum Standards) Convention, 1952 (No. 102) and the promotion of the Social Protection Floors Recommendation, 2012 (No. 202) will also be pursued. Work under this project will contribute to the achievement of sustainable development, specifically SDGs 1, 3, 5 and 10 and will be undertaken in partnership with UNAIDS, UNICEF, WHO, UNDP and the World Bank.SDG
