Adaptive Social Protection in Rwanda: A No-Regrets Approach to Increased Resilience in a Territorial Planning Context

The document argues that integrating Social Protection (SP) with Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) in Rwanda can increase the capacity of poor and vulnerable households and lower their vulnerability. While these three fields share the goal of managing risks to protect assets and livelihoods to promote sustainable growth, they have historically operated within separate institutions and conceptual frameworks.

• Integrating Social Protection (SP) with Disaster Risk Management (DRM) and Climate Change Adaptation (CCA) can increase household and community resilience in Rwanda by reducing vulnerability and enhancing the capacity of poor and vulnerable households.
