Strategic Plan for the Department of Social Welfare
Redefining strategic direction, policy goals and objectives.
Highlights
Strategic Plan of Department of Social Welfare (2019-2023): UNICEF supported the development of this Five-Year Strategic Plan (2019-2023) to assist the Department of Social Welfare (at all levels) to redefine and review its strategic direction, policy goals, objectives and formulate strategies based on its mandate.
This comprehensive Strategic Plan expounded on the implementation priorities and modalities towards the achievement of DSW’s mandate which leads to the promotion of an operative welfare system. It has been built on key national strategies and policy documents, including the National Development Planning Commission Medium Term Development Plan, the National Social Protection Policy (2016 -2031) and the National Social Protection Implementation Plan. It is also based on international frameworks, including the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) 2030, and the Agenda 2063 of the African Union.
