Social Protection Floor

The Social Protection Floor is a basic guaranteed level of support that governments provide to ensure all people can meet their essential needs. It typically includes access to essential healthcare, nutrition, safety nets for those unable to work, and basic income security. The aim is to prevent extreme poverty and social exclusion, ensuring everyone has a minimum standard of living regardless of their circumstances. It serves as a foundation upon which nations can build more comprehensive social protection systems, promoting social justice and economic stability.
