This publication’s main focus is on informalities. It is concerned with the extension of social protection to those sections of the population who are excluded from formal social security systems and who must either work for their living in the informal economy or are dependent on others. The research has been carried out in India, Pakistan, Bangladesh, Indonesia, Vietnam and China.
