- context:
- This Project has a number of examples to learn from – related to the
complexities inherent in providing assistance to employers and workers in
an industry with the help of cash transfer. In hindsight, “quick fixes” are so
much more difficult for the ILO to bring about - being a tripartite
organisation made up of actors with often very different perspectives -
than for some other international development organisations.
- description:
- A lessons learned from the Project’s income support (cash transfer)
component applied in the social protection component of the Project, is that
in countries’ that lack national social insurance institutions (of some kind),
the disbursement through other intermediaries can be very complicated, and
not necessarily appreciated by the stakeholders. The mechanism of the latter
can pose risks for the ILO for reasons related to accountability and
transparency. It may also undermine ILO’s long term efforts of developing
social protection (sustainable) systems.
