Abstract:This Policy Research Brief reflects on how to improve social protection systems in Latin America and the Caribbean after the COVID-19 pandemic, focusing on social insurance and labour market measures. It studies the regional social protection response to COVID-19 and analyses three country-level examples that show promising features for promoting and protecting rural employment in the region. Based on this analysis, it recommends measures to build rural social protection back better.
