Red Cross Climate Centre urges investment in social protection

Original: Blog: Why investing in social protection matters in a changing climate

The Red Cross Red Crescent Climate Centre has published a blog arguing that investing in social protection is essential as climate change intensifies shocks such as floods, droughts and heatwaves. The piece contends that safety nets, cash transfers and forecast-based support help vulnerable communities prepare for and recover from climate-related disasters. It calls on governments and donors to treat social protection as core climate adaptation infrastructure rather than short-term humanitarian aid.

Why now: Growing climate-driven disasters are prompting renewed debate on how safety nets can protect vulnerable populations.
