SOLIDAR round table: Winning the fight against poverty and inequality – a Social Protection Floor for everyone

In June 2012, the ILO Recommendation No. 202 concerning National Floors of Social Protection was unanimously adopted by the global community. Through it, governments have committed to ensure universal access to essential services and protection against the risks of sickness, unemployment, poverty, etc. Yet, today, more than 70 per cent of the world population is not adequately covered by social protection.

With this background, in the framework of the Universal Social Protection Advocacy Tour (4-6 November 2014), SOLIDAR is organising a Round Table Debate titled “Winning the fight against poverty and inequality: a Social Protection Floor for everyone”.
