Mapping international social protection statistics and indicators

This report summarizes a workshop which brought together representatives from various organizations active in social protection.

This working paper presents a mapping of existing, comparable, internationally collected data and related indicators on social protection (and more specifically its contribution to ensuring basic income security throughout the life cycle) and a reflection on current gaps and possible future joint actions. The mapping is divided into four areas: inter-generational, children, active age and old age.
