In early 2022, JLI launched our first three regional learning hubs, in the Middle East, Syria, and East Africa. Each regional hub has embarked on an individual journey of mapping, networking, engagement, and learning with local actors from the region. This series will explore those journeys, and will showcase the challenges, opportunities, successes, and learning that happens when we shift the power.

This webinar posits the necessity to rethink social policy in the SWANA region, and more specifically social protection, based on the principle of universalism (versus the notion of targeting). It will discuss to which extent the adequate and rights based institutionalisation of social protection can be perceived as the pillar of a social contract between the state and its citizens, and will reflect on the efficiency of a citizenship paradigm versus a charity and targeting based one.
