Overview:

Evidence show that social protection and risk-management measures can be a strong channel to reduce vulnerability of poor and ex­cluded people and enhance their capacity to undertake higher return economic activities. This section provides information and resources on the integration of risks management and social protection in local development strategies (diagnosis, planning, implementation and evaluation).

We recommend you to read the background text and use the resources available in the right-hand column, i.e case studies of integrated socio-economic development at the local level. For stakeholders willing to strengthen social protec­tio­n in local development­ plans and strategies we recommend to use the Guide and Manual to carry out a risk analysis and methodology to extend social protection at the local level.
