This third edition of The State of Social Safety Nets examines trends in coverage, spending,and program performance using the World Bank Atlas of Social Protection Indicators of Resilience and Equity (ASPIRE) updated database. The publication documents the main safety net programs that exist around the world and their use to alleviate poverty and build shared prosperity. The 2018 edition expands on the 2015 version in its coverage of administrative and household survey data. This edition is distinctive, in that for the first time it describes what happens with Social Safety Nets and Social Assistance program spending and coverage over time, when the data allow such analysis. The State of Social Safety Nets 2018 also features two special themes - social assistance and aging, focusing on the role of old-age social pensions; and adaptive social protection, focusing on what makes SSN systems and programs adaptive to various shocks.
