Protección social
El informe sobre el Estado Global de los Programas de Transferencias Monetarias 2020 de la CALP Network muestra lo siguiente:
- Trabajar con, a través de y junto con los sistemas de protección social es ahora considerado esencial para fortalecer el nexo entre la ayuda humanitaria y el desarrollo. Los actores humanitarios son cada vez más activos en este espacio.
- Los profesionales encuentran que los tres grandes desafíos para la vinculación eficaz son los siguientes: (i) la falta de coordinación entre los actores involucrados, (ii) los sistemas de protección social no están diseñados para responder a las crisis humanitarias, (iii) los profesionales carecen de experiencia en la protección social.
- Fundamentalmente, no existe una solución de “talla única” para la vinculación de los PTM y la protección social. Se deben considerar compensaciones entre la eficiencia, la eficacia, la rendición de cuentas y la sostenibilidad para asegurar los mejores resultados para las personas que viven en situaciones de crisis, y esto depende del contexto, los sistemas existentes y los plazos. La vinculación no siempre será apropiada y los sistemas de protección social podrían no satisfacer todas las necesidades. En muchos contextos, en el corto a mediano plazo, al menos, la programación humanitaria será requerida para llenar los vacíos.
Prioridades actuales
La CALP Network ha invertido intensamente en esta área temática durante el último año. Continuaremos trabajando estrechamente con el subgrupo de trabajo del Gran Pacto en Protección Social y con el equipo de la plataforma de “Protección social en contextos de crisis” de socialprotection.org para desarrollar evidencia, producir materiales de aprendizaje y brindar apoyo técnico para los actores de coordinación.
