A wide range of social protection programs allows countries to tackle specific development constraints at national, community, and household levels; provide support to particular population groups; and enhance growth-promoting opportunities.For instance, public works programs and cash transfers are important and flexible social assistance programs that can be tailored to achieve specific objectives and adjusted to various levels of institutional capacity. They can also be implemented as national and centralized programs or delivered in a more decentralized fashion through community-driven development platforms.en-USCC BY 3.0 IGORATIONSSAFETY NET PROGRAMSRISKSPROTECTION SYSTEMPOVERTY LINEHOUSEHOLD TRANSFERSSOCIAL FUNDSECONOMIC GROWTHLOSS OF INCOMEPROTECTION POLICIESOLD AGESKILLED WORKERSPOVERTY REDUCTION STRATEGIESDISABILITY PENSIONSFOOD CONSUMPTIONINCOMESOCIAL PENSIONSSOCIAL RISKINSURANCE PROGRAMASSISTANCE PROGRAMSHOME CARESOCIAL SAFETY NETUNSKILLED WORKHEALTH INSURANCEDEATHPOCKET EXPENDITUREWELFAREPROTECTION POLICYPUBLIC INFRASTRUCTURENATIONAL HEALTH INSURANCEENERGY SUBSIDIESSUBSIDYINEQUALITY REDUCTIONEMERGENCY RELIEFINCOME SUPPORTSOCIAL INVESTMENTSCASH TRANSFERSUSTAINABLE DEVELOPMENTSOCIAL PROGRAMSSOCIAL ASSISTANCELABOR MARKET POLICIESBENEFICIARIESCONFLICTPRIVATE PENSIONHEALTH CENTERMEASURESPENSIONBENEFIT AMOUNTRURAL WORKSSAFETY NETSPOVERTY REDUCTIONCOPING STRATEGIESWORKS PROGRAMSANTI-POVERTY PROGRAMSSAVINGSTECHNICAL ASSISTANCEBENEFICIARYWORK PROJECTSIRRIGATION INFRASTRUCTUREPOVERTY PROGRAMSPROGRAM COVERAGEHEALTH SYSTEMSVULNERABLE HOUSEHOLDSECONOMIC DOWNTURNSHEALTH CENTERSSOCIAL INSURANCETRANSFERSVULNERABLE POPULATIONSFINANCIAL CRISESCHRONIC POVERTYSOCIAL TRANSFERSOCIAL SECURITYSOCIAL PROTECTIONPROTECTION SYSTEMSEMERGENCY RESPONSEHEALTH CLINICJOB TRAININGSOCIAL CONTRACTPUBLIC WORKS PROGRAMSSOCIAL INSURANCE PROGRAMSFAMINESOCIAL DEVELOPMENTCASH TRANSFERSFOOD AIDHUMANITARIAN EMERGENCIESSUBSIDIESAVAILABILITY OF SERVICESADMINISTRATIVE COSTSNUTRITIONAL STATUSUNEMPLOYMENTCHILD ALLOWANCESHOUSEHOLD LEVELSOCIAL SAFETY NETSINCOME SECURITYFOOD SECURITYLEAN SEASONLABOR MARKET PROGRAMSDROUGHTSOCIAL SERVICESNEAR‐POORSCHOOL ATTENDANCEFOOD RATIONSINCOME SHOCKSPENSIONSCASH PAYMENTSCHRONICALLY POORVULNERABLE GROUPSMEDICAL SERVICESCONTRIBUTORY PENSIONSHOUSEHOLD LEVELSLOAN PROGRAMSAFETY NETRURAL POVERTYSOCIAL PENSIONPRODUCTIVE ASSETSDISABILITY INSURANCEMALNUTRITIONTRANSFER OF CASHINSTITUTIONAL CAPACITYVOUCHERSHUMAN CAPITAL DEVELOPMENTTRANSFER AMOUNTPUBLIC WORKSFOOD TRANSFERSINFRASTRUCTURE PROJECTSCASH ASSISTANCEUNIVERSAL BENEFITSTRANSFER PROGRAMSSOCIAL WELFAREPRIVATE TRANSFERSEMERGENCY FOODCASH BENEFITEMPLOYMENT GUARANTEEINSURANCESOCIAL CAPITALFOOD INSECURITYTARGETINGFOOD DISTRIBUTIONWORKFAREWORK PROGRAMSHORT-TERM EMPLOYMENTACCESS TO SERVICESPOVERTYFORMAL EMPLOYMENTFEEDING PROGRAMSCONDITIONAL CASHCONTRIBUTORY PENSIONWORK PROGRAMSUNIVERSAL HEALTHRISK MANAGEMENTLIVING CONDITIONSVULNERABLE CHILDRENCASH TRANSFER PROGRAMSCHILD LABORUNSKILLED WORKERSROAD CONSTRUCTIONINFORMAL SUPPORTPOORCOMMUNITY INVOLVEMENTDONOR FUNDINGTEMPORARY EMPLOYMENTECONOMIC SHOCKSHEALTH SERVICESWELFARE PROGRAMSCOMMUNITY INFRASTRUCTUREMARKET WAGEPOVERTY ALLEVIATIONRISK MITIGATIONHUMAN DEVELOPMENTINEQUALITYReportWorld Bank10.1596/22320
