Présentation du cours
Two years on from the outbreak of the COVID-19 pandemic, countries across the world are still grappling with the ensuing socio-economic consequences. Social protection is still high on the agenda in most countries and programmes are still essential to help cushion people from this protracted crisis. As 50 per cent of the world's population does not benefit from any form of social protection, this continues to be an unprecedented challenge. Drawing on the ILO's knowledge and expertise, this e-learning programme offers you the opportunity to further strengthen your competences in social protection in the context of this global crisis, learn about best practices, and get on-the-job technical support through e-coaching. As a result, you will be able to devise more responsive and sustainable social protection interventions to help your country better manage the disruption brought about by COVID-19 and mitigate its longer-term social and economic impacts on the most vulnerable groups.
Groupes cibles
This programme is designed for a wide range of professionals working in social protection institutions, ministries, international organizations and social-partner and civil-society organizations tasked with designing and implementing social protection measures, particularly in response to the COVID-19 pandemic. The following requirements are therefore essential for participation in the programme: the ability to use and access a computer with internet connectivity; and a working knowledge of written English. Same country delegations are strongly encouraged to take part in the programme, in order to devise systemic responses to country-specific challenges.
