The report is divided into two volumes.
The first volume includes the fundamental content of the
report. It is organized as follows. Chapter one provides a
conceptual framework to analyze risk and vulnerability and
provides a definition of social protection. Chapter two
assesses the main risks faced by the Malagasy population as
well as its vulnerability profile. Chapter three reviews
Madagascar's social protection policies, the
institutions responsible for social protection and the
financial resources allocated to social protection by the
government, donors and Non-Governmental Organizations
(NGOs). Chapter four proceeds with a description and
analysis of the main social protection programs presently
under implementation in Madagascar. Chapter five builds on
the previous chapters but also on the experience of other
low income countries, especially in Africa. It outlines the
main principles of a social protection strategy and
recommends priority actions for implementation including in
the immediate aftermath of a resolution to the current
political crisis. As such, this report is intended to
contribute to future governments' own formulation and
implementation of a social protection strategy. The second
volume includes a number of background papers that were
commissioned during the preparation of this report. These
papers are as follows: strategic directions for social
protection in Madagascar by Anthony Hodges; Poverty,
Vulnerability and Sources of Risks by Tiaray
