Policy Documents

After developing a consultancy mission in Morocco in November 2019, the IPC-IG research team designed the Integrated Social Protection Policy, building on the several reports that document the analytical work and consultations carried out under the framework of ongoing reforms.

Moreover, the IPC-IG developed an Implementation Framework for the Integrated Social Protection Policy, which considers the evolution of the public policy’s main areas following the 2020 crisis and focused on providing access to health care and social protection for children, unemployed people and retirees. In addition, a shock-responsive dimension was incorporated, in line with the COVID-19 developments. A One Pager will be produced informing the main achievements of the project.
