The project preparation benefitted from the World Bank’s decade long engagement in the social protection sector in Rwanda which included a variety of policy, technical and operational work. The project will help the government in expanding the coverage and improving the effectiveness of the flagship Vision 2020 Umurenge Program, thus increasing the number of households receiving the safety net income support. It will also expand the number of working days for public works thereby effectively increasing the size of transfers to the beneficiary households. Furthermore, the project will extend eligibility criteria for Direct Support (DS) cash transfers to include more labor-constrained households, especially those with responsibility of caring household members with disability. Finally, the SSPP will also introduce a gender and child sensitive expanded Public Works (ePW) model to provide more accessible jobs to those households that are ineligible for DS but still labor constrained due to caring responsibility for young children. The Direct Support and Classic Public Works models are well established being under implementation since many years. These are supported by appropriate institutional arrangements for delivery of cash transfers, which provide a good base to expand the scope through the new interventions supported by the SSPP.
