Success
  • Moving towards a more coordinated structure with
    PEED taking the lead
  • New energy injected into coordination process
    through e.g. the workshop
  • NSPG has been set-up

17
Challenges
  • Lack of clarity of definition of Social
    Protection (narrow vs broad)
  • leads to confusion for implementers
  • Lack of clarity of roles and responsibilities of
    MDAs
  • Fragmentation in
  • Policies
  • Implementation
  • Structure (Government Depts)
  • Funding (DPs)
  • ME
  • MIS

18
Challenges
  • Mismatch between responsibilities and resources
  • Lack of Capacity
  • Financial
  • Human Resources
  • Technical
  • Lack of information sharing
  • Role of SSRA in non-contributory schemes unclear
  • PEED faces staffing and financial resource
    challenges
  • PEED has been moved around several times

19
Recommendations
  • Adopt and implement NSPF
  • Operationalize and strengthen NSPG
  • Clarify the role of the highest level groups in
    SP coordination (NSC, headed by PM PSs forum)
  • Ensure that all implementers are represented in
    NSPG
  • Resource of PEED adequately

20
Recommendations
  • Develop coordination mechanisms in the following
    areas (Dr Likweliles proposal)
  • Policy
  • Regulation
  • Implementation
  • ME

21
on Policy and Regulation
  • Clearly define roles and responsibilities of
    sector MDAs with regards to policy setting and
    regulation
  • Sharpen definitions of social protection,
    vulnerability, for making them actionable
  • Monitor compliance of SP initiatives with NSPF
  • Clarify the role of Regulators in the
    coordination structure (non/contributory schemes)

22
on implementation
  • Establish integrated database of all social
    protection initiatives
  • Implement single registry of beneficiaries
  • Harmonize methods for enrolment of beneficiaries
  • Explore what role big implementers can take on,
    e.g. TASAF
  • Ensure portability of benefits when moving
    between jurisdictions

23
on ME
  • Strengthen harmonized data collection and
    transmission systems for Social Protection
    initiatives
  • Develop a common ME framework and standards for
    initiatives (explore role of NBS, think tanks)
  • Develop an ME framework for NSPF, linked to
    MKUKUTA
  • Coordinate (external) evaluations of pilot
    projects
