Abstract
This publication begins a series that
will monitor and report on social safety nets in developing
countries. This first report in the series provides key
social safety nets statistics and explains trends using
information from 146 countries, including detailed household
survey data from 69 countries in the World Bank's Atlas
of Social Protection: Indicators of Resilience and Equity
(ASPIRE) database. This report reviews important policy and
practical developments in social safety net programs and
highlights emerging innovations. While the primary focus is
on developing and emerging countries, it also includes some
references to high-income settings.
