Analysis and Design of Social Protection Systems (MA)
The current pandemic exposes why sustainable social protection systems are relevant to everyone. Social Protection means protecting our most vulnerable members of society, adapting our social systems to crisis and eradicating worldwide poverty. Seeing the benefits, we have proactively developed an interdisciplinary master’s programme, which will provide you with the tools to analyze any social system and show you how to design better more sustainable systems to mitigate the effects of precarious changes.

HANDBOOK ON SOCIAL PROTECTION SYSTEMS
Our programme head, Prof. Dr. Esther Schüring, and Markus Loewe, Reserach Team Leader at the German Development Institue recently published the Handbook on Social Protection Systems which provides readers with a comprehensive and globally relevant overview of the instruments, actors and design features of social protection systems, as well as their application and impacts in practice. It is the first book that centres around system building globally, a theme that has gained political importance yet has received relatively little attention in academia.
The multimedia version of the handbook allows for an easy read through highlights and key facts in addition to the content of the print version. The featured videos and podcasts with renowned experts offer insights to practice and topical discussions. The application also allows for keyword search, creating own highlights and storing notes. Moreover, quizzes and discussion questions for each chapter serve to test your knowledge.
