15. Lessons to be learned
The social protection floor agenda  increased complexity
Two different types of jobs (horizontal/vertical), stakeholders, mechanisms…
Not only support to isolated schemes but also to the SS system as a whole, ensuring coherence… within social security, with employment, fiscal space analysis/tax reform ….
Ex: NSPS in Cambodia, Financing social protection & Tax reform in Thailand, harmonization of schemes through NHIS in Lao PDR
Informal sector, poor & vulnerable
Formal sector
Levels of benefits
coherence

16. Lessons to be learned
We cannot do everything + cannot compete with some big players
Example of Viet Nam – UNICEF 100 millions US dollars – do not wait for us…
 Forward looking: Thematic focus (e.g. working age pop), standardized process, building capacities, building partnerships, resource mobilization/ development
Informal sector, poor & vulnerable
Formal sector
Levels of benefits
