Social protection as a tool for justice: Social Development Bulletin, Vol. 5, No. 2

January 2015

The present Social Development Bulletin examines the mutually reinforcing relationship between social protection and social justice.

It concludes with a set of recommendations on developing just and coherent social protection policies.
