[geovalin]

The European Union Delegation to Cambodia (EU), along with UNICEF, Oxfam and ILO, is working to support the Government of the Kingdom of Cambodia in the strengthening of its social protection system. The EU Support to Social Protection Reforms programme aims to simultaneously contribute to Cambodia’s COVID-19 response and support the implementation of Cambodia’s National Social Protection Policy Framework.

 

The National Social Protection Council of Cambodia plays a key role in the programme, alongside stakeholders at national and sub-national levels including the Ministry of Social Affairs, Veterans and Youth Rehabilitation, the National Social Security Fund, civil society, and the private sector.

 

“The EU has joined hands with the ILO, UNICEF and Oxfam, to support Cambodia in its long term objectives of broadening the inclusivity of its social protection system, including to workers who are not yet protected. Going forward, the EU will be supporting the bridging between social protection, decent jobs and sustainable green growth,” said Bryan Fornari, Head of Cooperation, EU Delegation to Cambodia.
