Social Pension Programs

Social Pension Programs are government-initiated systems designed to provide financial support to elderly individuals who lack sufficient income or savings. These programs aim to reduce poverty and improve the quality of life for older adults, particularly in rural areas where access to resources and employment opportunities may be limited. By offering regular, unconditional cash transfers, social pension programs help ensure that the elderly can afford basic necessities such as food, healthcare, and shelter, thereby promoting social inclusion and economic stability within vulnerable communities.
