Key principles for successful social protection policies:

We follow a rights-based approach (anchored in national, regional and/or international regulations);

The actors of the network manage a combination of several measures (prevention, protection, promotion) to provide benefits (in cash and/or in kind) to individuals; 

INSP!R encourage the effective participation of multiple stakeholders (State, civil society, private sector) to permanently transform the existing policy; 

The need for multiple sources to ensure sustainable funding is crucial (national and international); and a life-cycle approach (from birth to death).
