ISPA tools provide systematic analytical frameworks for planning the implementation of social protection systems and programmes. This is valuable also in times of crisis such as the current COVID-19 pandemic to support countries in rapidly developing solutions to expand their existing schemes and programmes or develop new ones. ISPA tools cover key aspects of the delivery chain such as identification systems, payments, information systems as well as addressing different programme types such as public works programmes or food security and nutrition programmes. There is also a tool allow to analyse the strengths and weaknesses of social protection system as a whole. ISPA tools comprise a guidance note explaining the approach and key concepts, in particular the criteria used to evaluate performance, a data collection framework and a table to present an overview of the findings in a structured manner. Watch here a video to know more about ISPA.

The booth will display the tools, their application guidelines and a selection of ISPA country reports as examples of their application. Experts will be available during certain hours to answer questions and explain.
