Statement by Chantal Mutamuriza from Save the Children delivered on behalf of the CS FfD Mechanism during the Addis PrepCom

Social protection is globally recognized as an effective tool for alleviating poverty, enhancing household income security, fostering human capital development, building resilience, and mitigating the impacts of climate-related and other shocks. It is also a right enshrined in the Universal Declaration of Human Rights, the Convention on the Rights of the Child, and other internationally ratified agreements.
