Kigali Global Dialogue 2022 || Safety Nets and Catapults: The Antidote to the Insecurity Economy || Gig Economy and Social Security ||

Traditional ways of managing economic insecurity and risk—state- and employer-provided welfare in particular—are at risk in a world defined by sovereign debt and the gig economy. As a result, workers, companies, and countries are rushing to discover new ways of creating safety nets and support frameworks.

What new social welfare paradigms are needed given rising and changing socio-economic, digital, security, and climate risks?

How can developing economies, like India and others, experimenting with new social safety nets serve as a lighthouse for not just each other but also high-income countries?

Can legacy welfare systems' traditional, national focus be rethought in an increasingly interconnected world?

How can digital technologies be leveraged to better connect vulnerable populations to safety net programs and broaden their inclusive nature?
