Social Promotion And Protection Project

closed

The objective of the Social Promotion and Protection Project for Lebanon is to increase access to social development services at the community level, improve the coverage and targeting of the National Poverty Targeting Program (NPTP), and strengthen the capacity of the Ministry of Social Affairs (MOSA) at the central level and the Social Development Centers (SDC) at the local level. This project have the following four components: ( 1) Social Development Centers (SDCs); (2) Community Social Development Program (CSD); (3) National Poverty Targeting Program (NPTP); and (4) Project Management (PM). Component one, which focuses on building the capacity of the SDCs, is cross cutting between Components two and three, as the SDCs are the local implementing arms of MOSA's mandate. Specifically, both the CSD and NPTP programs rely on the SDCs for implementation.
