Social Protection

Working papers

Written by John Farrington

Different policy stances on SP often relate closely to  understanding of where its boundaries should be set. At
its broadest, SP can be seen as a dimension of all social policy or development interventions. Many see all ‘social’ services (for instance health, education, water supply), or all ‘community-driven development’ (exemplified by World Bank-supported Social Funds) as part of the prevention, if not actually the mitigation, of risk.
