Abstract

Rural and structural transformation can lead to large improvements in welfare, but the outcomes depend on the inclusivity of transformation processes. Climate change, transitions to low productivity employment and divergent nutrition trends make resilient and inclusive transformation increasingly challenging to achieve. By bringing together findings on the diverse range of impacts of social protection from different strains of literature, this paper argues that social protection can make rural transformation more resilient and inclusive through two key pathways: i) increased human capital including healthy diets and nutrition and ii) improved resource allocation and risk management. However, this requires implementing social protection as an integral part of rural transformation policies, expansion of social protection coverage to enhance resilience and inclusivity and acknowledging trade-offs from multiple policy objectives.

社会保护在实现有韧性和包容性农村转型中的作用

农村和结构转型可以带来福利的大幅改善，但结果取决于转型过程的包容性。气候变化、向低生产率就业的过渡以及营养趋势的分化，使得实现具有复原力和包容性的转型越来越具有挑战性。本文汇集了不同文献对社会保护的各种影响的研究结果，认为社会保护可以通过两个关键途径使农村转型更具弹性和包容性：1)增加包括健康饮食和营养在内的人力资本；2)改善资源分配和风险管理。然而，这需要将社会保护作为农村转型政策的一个组成部分来实施，扩大社会保护覆盖面以增强韧性和包容性，并承认多种政策目标之间的权衡。

期刊介绍： Global Food Security plays a vital role in addressing food security challenges from local to global levels. To secure food systems, it emphasizes multifaceted actions considering technological, biophysical, institutional, economic, social, and political factors. The goal is to foster food systems that meet nutritional needs, preserve the environment, support livelihoods, tackle climate change, and diminish inequalities. This journal serves as a platform for researchers, policymakers, and practitioners to access and engage with recent, diverse research and perspectives on achieving sustainable food security globally. It aspires to be an internationally recognized resource presenting cutting-edge insights in an accessible manner to a broad audience.
