Social security and climate change
This chapter explores how climate change challenges the sustainability of social security systems and calls for reforms that integrate environmental and social objectives. It argues that fundamental social rights should guide these reforms to secure equitable protection for current and future generations. By redefining economic growth and re-evaluating the social contract, the chapter advances an eco-social approach that balances financial viability with ecological limits, highlighting adaptability as essential to maintaining resilient social protection systems in a changing climate.
