This report analyses some important cash and in-kind social protection provisions available to adults with disabilities (i.e. aged 18 or above). There are other important provisions available to them in other areas not covered in this report.
Malta’s long-term vision remains that of promoting and sustaining a better quality of life for all, particularly for those who are considered to be more vulnerable and therefore at greater risk of social exclusion and poverty. Against this background, Malta’s National Report on Strategies for Social Protection and Social Inclusion for 2008 to 2010 continues to build upon the previous 2006-2008 report even though there are issues such as migration which feature more predominantly in this report.
This National Plan is developed in line with the Council Recommendation of 8 November 2019 and the subsequent Guidance for National Plans for access to social workers and self-employed.1 The plan is based on data published in the Access to social protection for workers and the self-employed - Version 0 of the monitoring framework document.
As of January 2022, a total of 3,856 social protection and labor measures were planned or implemented by 223 economies. This constitutes a net increase of 523 measures, or 15.6 percent since the last update in May 2021. While noteworthy, such increase is the lowest among net additions observed over previous semesters. In fact, the global pace of measures’ introduction over January 2020-January 2022 has been slowing down. This report focuses on the real-time review of country measures in terms of social protection and job responses to Coronavirus (COVID-19).
In addition to collecting data of government policy responses to the Covid-19, our members also write reports and research notes about the countries they are documenting as well as particular Covid-19 issues. Please browse these reports and research notes below.
