The Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) are a global effort across a wide range of areas in which countries are working to achieve the targets set out by the international community. Social Protection can play a role in contributing to most of the SDGs. To ensure objectives are reached, building and using evidence as well as applying the necessary analytical tools are important to discuss.
In this episode we examine if investments in social protection could help accelerate progress towards the SDGs. We talk about the role of research, evaluation, and advocacy in driving change for policies and programmes towards achieving this ambitious agenda.
Meet our guests:
- Tayllor Spadafora, Social Policy Specialist, UNICEF Eastern and Southern Africa regional office.
- Michala Assankpon, Regional Evaluation Officer at the WFP regional bureau for Latin America and the Caribbean.
For our Quick Wins segment, we are joined by Laurel Patterson, Director for the SDG Integration at UNDP.
