This social policy brief looks at what enables and hinders risk financing for shock responsive social protection in the Philippines.
A strong and well-financed shock responsive social protection system can enable governments to shield households and individuals from the worst impacts of shocks and disasters.
This policy note is based on Disaster Risk Financing and Social Protection in Southeast Asia - Philippines Case Study by Maham Farhat and Fides Borja; UNICEF East Asia and the Pacific Policy Working Paper EAPWP/03/2021; and the UNICEF internal document Landscape Analysis on SRSP in BARMM by Georgina Rowe.
