Iran war exposes gaps in social protection funding

Original: The Iran war highlights the need for more aid to social protection

Analysts at the Lowy Institute argue that the Iran war shows international aid systems need to channel more support into social protection. The conflict has intensified pressure on civilian populations, and the piece calls for aid budgets to prioritise welfare and safety-net programmes alongside emergency and military responses. It adds to a wider debate about how humanitarian funding is allocated during major conflicts in the Middle East.

Why now: Ongoing conflict involving Iran has renewed debate over how aid should be directed toward protecting civilians.
