Governments’ financing of social protection initiatives dismal

Vulnerabilities within the economy are many, and females are at a higher disadvantage. The need for multi-faced interventions from both state and non-state actors is essential in addressing various vulnerabilities within different social groups. While there are recognised efforts from government to protect its citizens, the limited coordination in financing priorities are not reflecting this.
