The need for safety nets in Sub-Saharan Africa is vast. In addition
to being the world's poorest region, Sub-Saharan Africa is also one
of the most unequal. In this context, redistribution must be seen
as a legitimate way to fight poverty and ensure shared prosperity -
and all the more so in countries where growth is driven by
extractive industries that are not labour-intensive and often
employ very few poor people. Given that most African countries face
difficult decisions about how to allocate limited resources among a
number of social programs, evidence is important. Do Safety Net
programs actually benefit the poorest people? This book
demonstrates with empirical evidence that it is possible to reach
the poorest and most vulnerable people with safety net programs,
and provides lessons for the effective use of targeting methods to
achieve this outcome in the region.
