Natural disasters and climate change are
among the greatest threats to development. Although natural
disasters have always presented risks, climate change
increases those risks and compounds them by adding a greater
level of uncertainty. As a result of their increased
frequency, the economic and social costs of disasters are
mounting (World Bank 2010). Natural disasters and climate
change can push people into chronic and transient poverty
and force them to adopt negative coping strategies. Social
protection programs play an important role in protecting
poor and vulnerable people from these impacts and helping
them reduce their exposure and vulnerability to them. This
toolkit provides guidance on how to prepare social
protection programs to respond to disasters and climate
change. The snapshots of good practice experiences and
practical tips for implementation are intended to guide
decision makers in countries facing these risks in adapting
their social protection programs to reduce negative impacts
and accelerate recovery. The focus of this toolkit is
aligned with the role and expertise of the World Bank, which
has traditionally supported early and long-term recovery and
helped rebuild livelihoods and infrastructure. This toolkit
provides examples of good practice experiences and practical
guidance for the practitioner in that direction. |
