ESCWA and UNICEF, following a request for technical assistance from the Yemeni Social Welfare Fund, are jointly planning a training workshop on Social Protection (TRANSFORM). The aim is to support the reform efforts in building a modern and inclusive social protection system in Yemen.
TRANSFORM is a capacity-building initiative on the administration of social protection floors for practitioners in the Arab and African regions, with a focus on non-contributory social assistance. Through the facilitation of a team of Arabic TRANSFORM Certified Trainers, the TRANSFORM training targets a group of key staff at the Yemeni Ministry of Social Affairs and Labour, the Social Welfare Fund, and officials from other line ministries working on social protection.
