Apr 6, 2022 | 1:00 PM - 2:00 PM
Description
By ensuring access to healthcare and by providing income replacement, social protection has shielded people from financial insecurity and poverty during the pandemic. However, there are important gaps in social protection, especially for informal workers and workers in non-standard forms of employment. This panel will discuss initiatives that have been taken by governments and social partners to cover such gaps.
