| Summary: | Social protection (SP) in Bangladesh is
characterized by a large number of programs. Multiple
agencies implement numerous interventions. To maximize the
impact of social protection programs, it is critical to: (1)
align the allocation of resources with national policies and
strategies; (2) design programs that are able to reach their
intended beneficiaries with adequate coverage and level of
benefits; (3) ensure efficiency in programming and
financing; and (4) ensure efficiency in the actual delivery
of programs at the local level. This policy note analyses
point (3), the processes of budgeting, programming, and
reporting on SP budget, highlights areas where challenges
remain, and proposes policy recommendations to address those. |
