BANGKOK, Thailand, Oct 07 (IPS) - Social protection systems are essential to achieving the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development.

Tens of millions of people have been pushed into extreme poverty since COVID-19, reversing past gains, and many millions more live precariously just above the poverty line.
