New ILO report highlights key role of social protection in climate change mitigation

GENEVA (ILO News) – The International Labour Organization (ILO) is issuing a new report on the key role that social protection systems can play in countering the impact of climate change and supporting a just transition.

The World Social Protection Report 2024-26: Universal Social Protection for Climate Action and a Just Transition, also offers new figures on the number of people globally who benefit from some form of social protection. It highlights some of the key gaps in social protection coverage, notably in countries that are among those worst affected by climate change.
