The guiding principles in practiceCoherent strategy
• National consensus building on priorities (ex Assessment Based National Dialogue)
• Leading to national social protection strategies (Cambodia, Mongolia, Lao PDR, Myanmar)
![Page 15: Valerie Schmitt, ILO Bangkok · 2015-09-14 · Opportunities and challenges in the implementation of SPFs Valerie Schmitt, ILO Bangkok UNITAR/ILO Seminar on advancing social protection](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050401/5f7efb5701311f3f0406eb6c/html5/thumbnails/15.jpg)
The guiding principles in practiceCoherence across institutions
• Coordinating agencies (ex CARD, NESDB, Vice President)• Coordinated delivery (ex Single Window)
![Page 16: Valerie Schmitt, ILO Bangkok · 2015-09-14 · Opportunities and challenges in the implementation of SPFs Valerie Schmitt, ILO Bangkok UNITAR/ILO Seminar on advancing social protection](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050401/5f7efb5701311f3f0406eb6c/html5/thumbnails/16.jpg)
The guiding principles in practiceCoordinated technical assistance
• Taskforces and teams: IWG in Cambodia, UN/RTG in Thailand, UNPDFin Indonesia … in the framework of UNDAFs
• Support to UNCTs through UNDG‐AP issues briefs on SP
![Page 17: Valerie Schmitt, ILO Bangkok · 2015-09-14 · Opportunities and challenges in the implementation of SPFs Valerie Schmitt, ILO Bangkok UNITAR/ILO Seminar on advancing social protection](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050401/5f7efb5701311f3f0406eb6c/html5/thumbnails/17.jpg)
The guiding principles in practiceAffordability & fiscal space
Cambodia; 0.4 – 2.4% GDP by 2020 Indonesia; 0.7 to 2.4% GDP by 2020
Thailand; 0.5 – 1.2% GDP by 2020 Viet Nam; 2% to 6% GDP by 2020
![Page 18: Valerie Schmitt, ILO Bangkok · 2015-09-14 · Opportunities and challenges in the implementation of SPFs Valerie Schmitt, ILO Bangkok UNITAR/ILO Seminar on advancing social protection](https://reader034.fdocuments.net/reader034/viewer/2022050401/5f7efb5701311f3f0406eb6c/html5/thumbnails/18.jpg)
The guiding principles in practiceMonitoring and evaluation
• Various targeting methods (means tested, area based…) using a mix of scientific and community based mechanisms
• Need to build information systems to gather and update information (ex: TNP2K Indonesia)
• Impact evaluation of interventions
• Role of decentralized “entry points” (SWS, PEOPLE service) for the updating of data

The guiding principles in practiceCoverage & benefit package
• Priority given to the poor by many governments• Benefit packages remain low at the beginning but increase
gradually (ex: Indonesia VS Thailand)• Combined benefit
packages & case management
• No leverage onquality/availability of public services
