The review has focused on the design and operation of the scheme, including the payment modality, and the effectiveness of coverage of both the old age pension and disability components. The economic and social impact of the pension on recipients’ wellbeing, the wellbeing of their households and their communities has not been reviewed in detail, although limited qualitative research through focus group discussions has been undertaken as part of the review. The second objective of the report has been to draw key lessons from the New Ireland experience with the implementation of the social pension, which may inform the implementation of the national social pension.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGOSAFETY NET PROGRAMSBENEFITRISKSINSTITUTIONAL CAREPROTECTION SYSTEMECONOMIC GROWTHOLD AGEINFORMAL SAFETY NETSOLD-AGE PENSIONPOVERTY LEVELSDISABILITY PENSIONSINCOMEFORMAL SAFETY NETSSOCIAL TRANSFERSPARTNERPOVERTY TRAPSSOCIAL RISKOPTIONNEEDS ASSESSMENTSOCIAL SAFETY NETDISCRIMINATIONHEALTH CAREPOLITICAL ECONOMYDEATHWELFAREPROTECTION POLICYHEALTHDISABILITY PENSIONINFORMATION MANAGEMENTOLD AGE PENSIONINCOME SUPPORTCASH TRANSFERBENEFIT PAYMENTPENSION SYSTEMWILLBENEFICIARIESGENDER BIASPENSIONBENEFIT AMOUNTSAFETY NETSHOMEFAMILY ASSISTANCEDISABILITIESCOMMUNITY DEVELOPMENTSAVINGSTECHNICAL ASSISTANCEPROVIDENT FUNDPENSION PAYMENTBENEFICIARYPUBLIC ACTIONSOLD-AGE PENSIONSPENSION AGEJUDICIAL REFORMVULNERABLE HOUSEHOLDSMARRIAGESNATIONAL PENSIONCASH PAYMENTSOCIAL INSURANCETRANSFERSPENSION PAYMENTSHOUSEHOLD INCOMEPENSION PROGRAMMEELIGIBILITY CRITERIALEGISLATIONSOCIAL SECURITYSOCIAL PROTECTIONPROTECTION SYSTEMSUNEMPLOYMENT INSURANCEELIGIBLE BENEFICIARIESSOCIAL DEVELOPMENTCASH TRANSFERSPENSION FUNDSDISABILITY COVERAGESOCIAL SUPPORTELDERLYSKILLED PERSONNELUNEMPLOYMENTHOUSEHOLD LEVELSOCIAL SAFETY NETSINTERNATIONAL SOCIAL SECURITYINCOME SECURITYBENEFIT LEVELSFOOD SECURITYSKILLS TRAININGLABOR MARKET PROGRAMSSOCIAL JUSTICESCHOOL FEESWOMANFAMILYMOBILE PHONEPENSIONSGENDERCASH PAYMENTSVULNERABLE GROUPSSAFETY NETSOCIAL PENSIONSELECTION CRITERIAINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYSOCIAL WELFAREINSURANCEJUSTICEHUMAN RIGHTSPENSION BENEFICIARIESCHILDRENPENSION POLICYWORK PROGRAMPENSION SCHEMEEQUALITYPOVERTYPENSIONERSCONTRIBUTORY PENSIONDISABILITYDECENTRALIZATIONFINANCIAL SUPPORTPENSION SCHEMESRISK MANAGEMENTVULNERABLE CHILDRENCHECKPENSION COVERAGEHUMANITARIAN RELIEFPOORSOCIAL CHANGEFAMILIESWOMENSHOCKTRANSFER PAYMENTFEMALEPENSION PROGRAMDEVELOPMENT BANKBENEFITSPOVERTY ALLEVIATIONINEQUALITYReportWorld Bank10.1596/22525
