Social Safety Nets in World Bank Lending and Analytical Work : FY2002–2007
During FY 2002-2007 the World Bank
engaged with 118 countries on social safety net (SSN)
issues, providing lending in 68, analytic products in 86,
training in 87, and a combined package of all three services
in 42. A review of these safety net activities shows a
strong diversity with respect to the regions, types of
intervention, sectors and financing instruments. This
reflects evolving thought within the Bank with respect to
the role of safety nets in broad development strategies, not
just immediate or temporary programs. The findings of the
portfolio review take into account all project and analytic
documents where a thematic code of 'social safety
nets' was assigned. The analysis shows a noticeable
variability over time, particularly as the portfolio
expanded when large or multiple countries faced economic
crises. The regional distribution of safety net activities
reflects the dominance of Latin America, with emerging
activities in the African and South Asian context.
