Descripción
Social protection plays a critical role in reducing vulnerabilities, supporting agricultural workers, and improving productivity and employability, thereby contributing to inclusive and sustainable growth. Embedding social protection within broader rural development and agrifood system transformation strategies is essential to enhancing the economic inclusion of poor and marginalized populations, safeguarding their food and nutrition security, and strengthening resilience and adaptation to climate-related shocks.In 2024, the FAO Social Protection Team at the Regional Office for Africa intensified its support to governments and other stakeholders to design and implement inclusive social protection systems that complement and strengthen agrifood systems through various initiatives and approaches. This brief highlights some of the key regional-level results achieved in 2024.
