Resumen
Descripción
This note proposes a reform agenda to
address the challenges facing the system of social
assistance This will require: i) a progressive shift of
public expenditure toward pro-poor programs; ii) improving
coherence and complementarity among social protection
programs, and iii) making social assistance programs more
inclusive and responsive. The structure of this chapter is
as follows. The next two sections provide an overview of
poverty and the composition and trends in non-contributory
social protection expenditure in the Kyrgyz Republic. The
fourth section looks at performance of the social assistance
expenditure in the Kyrgyz Republic and shows that while
spending has increased significantly in recent years, its
performance in terms of coverage and targeting of the poor,
as well as in terms of its impact on poverty remains modest.
Other issues, which are important to take into account in
the process of improving effectiveness of social assistance
expenditure, are discussed in the following section. The
last section concludes by summarizing key challenges and
proposing recommendations for system reform, as well as
areas requiring further research and analysis.
