I got special and amazing lessons including the concepts of SP, the links between SP and SDGs, 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development and SP, 5P's, how to build SP systems, what are lifecycle risks related to SP and the difference between the Covariate and Idiosyncratic shocks, how the sustainable future could be enhanced to enable environmental and responsive institutions for effective and efficient delivery of services. Inspiring feedback and genuine resources, motivated me in my noble pursuits. There is a need to develop and mainstream good policies and regulations, through sectoral plans by focusing on highly vulnerable groups. That is part of what I take home.

Hello Everyone.
From Module 1, I have more knowledge on the social protection for Development concept, its global practices, impacts and the different forms of Lifecycle risks.
I have understood the role of the 2030 agenda and its importance to Social development. All nations need to put in place measures that do not put the environment and its people at risk, which can best be achieved by collaborative multilateral efforts of organisations, individuals, nations and the global community. Thank you

My takeaway is that life risks can strike at any time and in any format. It is therefore key and paramount for the government and even individuals themselves, to put in place the necessary mechanisms and shock absorbers to mitigate or address issues as soon as calamity strikes.

My name is Eucharia from Nigeria and working with farm Radio International. This module has given me a deeper insight into social risks individuals go through at different stages of their lives. Mentally, I was able to compare what the available social protection systems where in my country and sadly I could only see a few unsustainable systems in place. Many thanks to the UN college team for this opportunity to learn with other professionals.

It is interesting to understand the genesis of social development and how it links to the SDGs.  Unpacking the different approaches of social protection still stands out for me and it is interesting to match it to my own country's context.

SP is not only about SDGs but rather a much broader necessity anchored in the 5s of Sustainable Development (People, Planet, Prosperity, Partnerships and Planet)

# data[].attributes.body
My key takeaways are understanding how social protection links to various SDGs and the importance of partnerships and alliances for there to be effective advocacy, funding and sustainability in developing SP systems. Furthermore it was helpful to understand the various SP models and in particular the lifecycle framework in explaining and responding to SP needs. It also helped to differentiate between individual and household (Idiosyncratic) and collective (covariate) impacts in SP

# data[].attributes.body
This is indeed a very comprehensive overview of social protection meaning and connection to sustainable development.
It provokes my thought about what social protection scheme could fit my country on the long term and how it is possible to implement it. Nevertheless, I feel like wat I learned is a drop in the ocean and still far long way to go.
I am hoping that we can elaborate on the informal social protection system that exist due to the community and family ties and how we can build on it for a further countrywide system without going extreme with individualism.

My key take away point will focus on life cycle risks, the idiosyncratic aspect and the covariate version. Coming to terms with the various risks available in the different lifecycles and the social protection mechanisms available to quench or cushion these risks, has been truly enlightening for me. And of course, the brutland commission's lucid definition of what sustainable development really means has enligthened me more than I can imagine.

Great insights on how social protection impacts across the dimensions of sustainable development. Looking at social protection through this integrated approach is useful to simulate the direct and catalytic impacts of investment in social protection across other goals. So too the social protection approaches are enriching.

# data[].attributes.body
Module 1 made me reflect on the comprehensivess of the sustainable development agenda, especially when in line with social protection. I find it helpful to look at social protection through a lifecycle approach. It makes it easier to see how social protection can (and should) be applied in many instances, while tackling several types and levels of vulnerability. Well done!

This module highlights how social protection is embedded on the 17 SDGs of the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda. This is articulated around 5 pillars (people, planet, partnership, prosperity and  peace).
Life cycle takes into account the five steps of the life : early childhood, school age, youth, working age, old age)

# data[].attributes.body
I learned in this module how the 2030 Agenda connects to social protection and which are the main partnerships established to advance these goals.

# data[].attributes.body
My key takeaways from Module 1 :
- Understanding how they relate do the Sustainable Development Goals and the 2030 agenda
- Getting to know what Programmes, Founds and Iniciatives for Social Protection already take place in the UN System
- Understanding the different approaches to Socil Protection, deepenning in the lifecycle risks approach.

# data[].attributes.body
I have a better understanding, through :

- historical perspective for the concept of social protection and linkage with the 2030 Agenda;

- clear identification of key players in the social protection field;

- better definition in the typology of risks ('idiosyncratic' vs 'covariate' risks);

- further clarification on methodologies linked to the lifecycle approach.

* The member states of UN adopted the 2030 Agenda for Sustainable Development in 2015, a process to develop a set of 17 Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) articulated around 5 dimensions of social protection, the "5Ps" (Peace, Prosperity, Partnerships, People, and Planet)
* There are various actors and network of entities that promotes social protection initiatives (UN agencies, SPIAC-B, socialprotection.org for instance) and coordinated actions at multilevel.
* There are 5 categories in the Lifecycle risks : early childhood, school age, youth, working age, and old age)

I have now a clearer understanding about the connection between social protection and SDGs. I think the life cycle framework could be the best suitable for many countries among LDCs. This module got me thinking that we need to help households understand more about social protection and how they could take actions to put in place their own "social protection measures at family level" (thru various savings for instance), in addition to benefiting from the government's SP programs, if there are existing.

Placing social protection in the wider context of people-centered, rights-based development, its enabling effect on the entirety of the 2030 Agenda the distinct challenges posed by lifecycle risks and covariate shocks are my biggest takeaways from this module.

# data[].attributes.body
Deepened appreciation around how sustainability and sustainable development has evolved thus far, and the strength of SP as an underscore towards delivering on the 17 goals; in this time-frame.

I am particularly thrilled with the Global Partnerships (and prospects for quality of life and wellbeing + nature) subsumed in the USP 2030, GCSPF, Joint SDG Fund, the Global Accelerator as well as the sustainability embedded through the SP online platforms.

Lastly, I acknowledge more the enormous, integrated yet unique SP permutations across different regional and national levels that are needed for achieving SDG Agenda 2030. The information shared prove useful in analysing SP particularly for my country Nigeria.

I understood more clearly the significance of social protection in not leaving anyone behind and achieving the Agenda 2030. I really liked the interconnection between social protection and each of the SDGs explained clearly in the module.

Module 1 provides a great overview on how social protection came to be and how it ties into the current development goals that countries now use as a yard stick to aid growth. My biggest takeaway from this module has to be about promotion and active collaborations for social protection programs at the national and state levels in order to reduce lifecycle risks for the benefit of all people especially the most vulnerable ones.

That for people to increase the possibility of continued human existence and well-being, there is need for the conscious protection of the people and the planet. All nations need to put in place measures that do not put the environment and the people at jeopardy and this can be done by collaborative efforts by individuals, communities, nations and the global community.

# data[].attributes.body
Often, I have thought about social protection in local contexts but from this module, I have realized that it is not a standalone concept and that SP is linked to the wider global community through the 17 SDGs, and the 2030 Sustainable Development Agenda. The emphasis on partnerships calls on every stakeholder at each level of society to work in collaboration so that no one is left behind.

# data[].attributes.body
This lesson gave me an excellent overview of social protection and the mandatory requirements of it throughout one's living life cycle. For a society to move forward, it is important that at every strata there is a safety net of protection to give a 'leg-up' to the unfortunate member of society, irrespective of their socio-economic status to derive parity in everyday living!!

I think the most significant concept that I learned from this course is life cycle risks. Learning about them challenged my initial views about social protection. Before the course, I used to think that social protection is mostly for vulnerable individuals, such as ethnic and racial minorities, refugees, people living in conflict zones, etc. I did not think so much about other people, for example, myself. I never really thought about whether I would need social protection one day. Having learned about life cycle risks (I have also faced some of them in my life so far), I believe I am in a better position to recognise the immense importance of social protection.

There is not a unique way to design social protection schemes, multiple approaches address different criticalities.

I reflected more on the current situation we have in my country, and I thought about what life can be in the presence of social protection services, the main framework that I thought can be used in my country is the social risk management framework, that could have supported when my country faced and is still facing shocks with no mitigation or preparation plans. I am also happy to learn 2 new words Idiosyncratic risk and covariate risk.

It was very eye-opening to learn more about the life-cycle approach to understanding social protection systems. The approach shines a light on the fact that people face different types of risks and vulnerabilities depending on the specific life stage in which they are. Hence, effective and resilient social protection systems are made up of programs and initiatives that target each one of these risks in a participar way, always taking into consideration the beneficiaries and the contingencies of their condition. This approach seems to be particularly useful to analyse the social protection systems of my home country, Brazil.

I now understand more clearly the link between social protection and the SDGs. I was unaware that there were different approaches to social protection, and that different organizations adopt one or a variation of these approaches in their programs. I realized that my organization appears to apply the TSP approach to social protection.

While I would have loved to learn more about the TSP approach, I now realize that the life cycle approach coupled with an understanding of gender-based constraints would be a great approach for addressing social protection issues impacting vulnerable populations, in particular women and young girls.
