Launched in 2016, the ILO’s Global Flagship Programme on Building Social Protection Floors for All (SPF Flagship Programme) supports ILO member States in developing sustainable social protection systems, including floors, and contributing to the United Nations Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) on social protection (in particular targets 1.3 and 3.8), through a coherent structure to mobilize resources and achieve impact.
The first Development Partners meeting for Phase II offers the chance for the ILO and development partners to share progress made and lessons learnt in supporting and achieving the SDGs on social protection and collaborate on how to meet current and future challenges in a post-COVID context, including by exploring synergies between the SPF Flagship Programme and the Global Accelerator for Jobs and Social Protection for Just Transitions.
