This literature review explores two main issues relating to the social protection response to the food, fuel and financial crisis of 2007-2009 – the so-called ‘triple F crisis’ – in low- and middle-income countries (LICs and MICs):
-
the expectations and perspectives of development partners on the role of social protection in shock response, and
-
the experience of scaling up social protection responses during the 2007-2009 ‘triple crisis’ (food, fuel and finance) in low- and middle-income countries, and the implications for future shock readiness.
