The Digital Social Protection in Africa project brings together African workers’ rights organisations with African digital rights organisations in a process of collaborative research and collective action. The objective is to increase the influence of marginalised voices in this rapidly developing field so that workers’ rights are better protected as social protection systems across the continent are digitalised. Partners will undertake:
- A process of collaborative research to produce new knowledge and evidence about the experience, priorities, and interests of African workers.
- A process of collective action informed by that evidence, to ensure that African workers’ priorities and interests are influential as social protection systems and policies evolve.
The aim is to enhance the knowledge, evidence base, and ability of African workers and digital rights actors to play an influential role in shaping policy and practice in the digitalisation of social protection. The aim is to ensure a just transition to forms of digital social protection that benefits all African workers, especially the most marginalised and excluded.
