A database of 98 climate-relevant social protection programs in emerging and developing economies

The database maps the integration of climate considerations in social protection programs in emerging and developing economies. Using a mixed-methods approach, we identified 98 climate-relevant social protection programs and collected data on over 70 variables related to their scope and climate relevance at policy, design, and implementation level. The database might periodically be revised to improve the data points for each program (including referencing, coding, etc.). We do not intend to add new programs to it. Please ensure to download and cite the latest version of the database available in this page for the most up-to-date and precise data. We encourage researchers and practitioners to use the database in building a more comprehensive understanding of climate-relevant social protection programs worldwide.
