Non-contributory pensions are cash transfers mainly for older persons or persons with disabilities that the State provides to those who have not had a formal employment or have not made any (or enough) contributions to social security during their working life. This database provides data on expenditure, coverage and amount of the monetary transfers, as well as detailed information on the different components of social pensions in Latin American and Caribbean countries.


This database collects information on labour inclusion programmes targeting persons living in poverty or vulnerability. These programmes are characterized by interventions in the areas of labour training, adult education, direct and indirect employment generation, support to micro entrepreneurship and labour intermediation services.
