Connecting Farmer Registries to Social Protection Systems
The Social Protection challenge of farmer registries
- Farmer registry data varies widely by country and isn’t systematically linked to social protection systems
- Smallholder farmers face economic shocks, climate risks, and limited access to services
- Registration and eligibility checks are fragmented across ministries of agriculture and social protection
- Without shared standards, integrated policymaking (agriculture + social protection) is hard to coordinate
DCI Solution Package
Our farmer registry and social protection interoperability standards are compliant with the European Interoperability Framework (EIF) principles.
Farmer Registries and Social Protection Information Systems is the foundational paper by FAO & GIZ that the standards build on.
Farmer registry and social protection systems workshop discussed some use cases of interoperability and demonstrated the integration and value of interoperability for delivering social protection programs.
