##SocialProtection
1/3 of the global population relies on forests for their subsistence and income.

They are more likely to face poverty and inequality.

Harmonizing #SocialProtection with forest policy is a solution towards agrifood systems transformation.

🎥 From maternity benefits to health insurance and pensions, many rural populations do not have access to #SocialProtection.

@FAO.org works with cooperatives and other forms of collective action help close this gap.

🐟 Fisheries are vital to coastal communities' livelihoods & food security.

But #ClimateCrisis, pollution, overfishing & other threats make earning an income as a fisher hard.

💡 Why @FAO.org's #SocPro4Fish is working to expand #SocialProtection for fishers👇

I get teased for being 'the visuals person, but that is how my brain works. Could not find a good graphic that helped explain different statuses of #migration and #displacement, plus implications for #SocialProtection in one go.. so went for it. What would you fix/change? Can add more disclaimers!

Two interesting papers relevant for #socialprotection and #cashtransfer #evaluation & #research. 1) the relationship between program evaluations and policy spending - unsurprisingly finding the timeliness of evaluations (<4 years, within electoral cycle) really matters bsky.app/profile/econ... (1/2)
We still have a relatively poor understanding of the relationship between evidence and policy. Program evaluation in particular is often motivated by a desire to make policy better. But how effective is program evaluation itself?Michelle Rao's JMP tackles this question. www.michellerao.com/research
