Description of data capture

The desk review of social protection programmes was performed via a two-stage process: (1) countries were screened for inclusion, using set criteria (e.g. population size, social protection coverage, presence of formal social security disability benefits), followed by (2) programmes in countries selected were identified using regional and global social protection databases and other key sources, such as State Party Reports to the Committee on the Rights of Persons with Disabilities. Data was extracted based upon a standardised set of themes and sub-themes, including both general programme information and disability specific data (name and type of programme, benefits provided, number of beneficiaries with disabilities etc.).
