ECLAC is Holding a Two-Day Workshop

ECLAC and GIZ will hold a two-day technical workshop on 20 and 21 June.

In recent years, it has become increasingly clear that Latin American and Caribbean countries need stronger legal and regulatory frameworks to improve the effectiveness, efficiency, transparency and sustainability of rights-based social protection systems.

The event,  Avances y desafíos de la institucionalidad social en América Latina y el Caribe: caminos hacia una protección social universal bajo el enfoque de derechos, will bring together experts to:

  • Analyse the current situation of social services in the region from several different perspectives;
  • Discuss challenges in designing universal social protection systems that effectively facilitate access to economic, social and cultural rights; and
  • Discuss the best methods to to adequately coordinate:
    • social policies and care policies,
    • contributory and non-contributory social protection schemes,
    • policies and programmes for specific population groups and
    • general public policy objectives.

 

This event will be live streamed.
