Social Protection in Mozambique

The aim of the proposal to the One UN Fund aims to emphasize UN’s work in support of the Government in the context of UNDAF output 4.4 which lies in the following areas: • To help government better coordinate the implementation of the Social Protection Programme through support to the Basic Social Security Council and establishment of a Common Funding Mechanism (not costed in this logframe as it supports UNDAF output 4.3); • To strengthen the government capacity (through on–the-job training) at all levels to gradually roll out and transfer of programme responsibilities (e.g. beneficiary registry, delivery of food, cash transfer payments) in a quality manner; • To improve the existing Information Management Systems pertaining to management, implementation and monitoring of social protection programmes; and • To help government create linkages between social protection programmes, social and economic services and child protection through community case management; • To continue to raise awareness around social protection in society and with key policy makers.
