With regard to strengthening the social protection system: (a) Increase coordination among existing social protection initiatives, ensuring national coverage, transparency, accountability and access without discrimination; (b) Ensure that payments are distributed regularly and that the existing programmes are expanded to reach all eligible beneficiaries, particularly those in rural areas; (c) Ensure that targeting methods do not result in discrimination and exclusion or perpetuate existing asymmetric power structures; (d) Review the imposition of conditionalities in the Bolsa da Mãe programme, expand the programme and establish a complaint mechanism; (e) Ensure, in the meantime, that social protection programmes reach the most vulnerable as a matter of priority; (f) Develop employment schemes to address the structural barriers that prevent specific groups (youth, women, persons with disabilities and others) from actively participating in the workforce. 23
