<p>Salah satu langkah konkret yang dilakukan pemerintah dalam penanggulangan kemiskinan adalah dengan mengadakan program perlindungan sosial, yaitu berupa pemberian bantuan sosial kepada masyarakat miskin yang menjadi target sasaran program. Permasalahan yang sering terjadi dalam pelaksanaan program perlindungan sosial tersebut adalah terjadinya salah sasaran dalam pemberian bantuan sosial akibat adanya kesalahan (<em>error</em>) data, tidak akuratnya data penerima sasaran program perlindungan sosial, dan tidak konsistennya <em>stake holder</em> terkait dalam penentuan kelayakan masyarakat penerima bantuan. Maka dirancanglah sistem yang dapat membantu dalam perekapan, pengolahan, dan penyeleksian data penerima bantuan yaitu dengan sistem pendukung keputusan menggunakan metode <em>Analytical Hierarcy Process</em> (AHP) yang merupakan salah satu model untuk pengambilan keputusan yang komprehensif dengan memperhitungkan nilai bobot masing-masing kriteria. Sehingga bisa mempermudah <em>stakeholder</em> terkait dalam perekapan dan pengolahan data penerima bantuan, serta membantu dalam penentuan kelayakan penerima bantuan agar merata, tepat sasaran dan sesuai dengan ketentuan yang telah ditetapkan pemerintah.</p><p> </p><p><em><span style="font-size: 11.0pt; line-height: 115%; font-family: 'Times New Roman',serif; mso-fareast-font-family: Calibri; mso-ansi-language: EN-US; mso-fareast-language: EN-US; mso-bidi-language: AR-SA;" lang="EN-US">One of the concrete steps taken by the government in poverty alleviation is by conducting social protection program, which is social assistance to the poor targeted by the program.

Ghana has many interventions or systems to eradicate poverty among vulnerable people, especially those with disabilities. Ghana's Parliament launched the Social Protection Program in conformity with the United Nations Convention on the Right of People with Disabilities (UNCRPD) as well as the Disability Law of Ghana. One of these programs is the Social Protection Program, under which rehabilitation and RLG ICT training of People with Disabilities (PWDs) have been implemented in the classroom. The main goal of this program is to educate PWDs, granting them employable skills and thereby enabling them to become independent citizens. This chapter, which is related to one of the recommended topics, “Issues and Challenges of Digital Tools and Applications in the Classroom,” draws on and employs a phenomenological approach to confirm the lack of culturally responsiveness of technology to the Ghanaian disability community. Participants indicated they were disconnected from the program because the technological devices were foreign and not connected to their indigenous culture.

The objective of the paper is to review the existing literature on social security and social protection program in Nepal carried out by Government of Nepal and offered suggestion for the betterment of the program in the line of equality, financial sustainability and economic growth. The paper is prepared based on the desk review of the various scientific articles and report published by the institutions and individual authors. In total 64 papers have been reviewed published during ten years period ranges from 2006 to 2015. Based on the critical review the paper conclude that Dalits, endangered community, school girls, child and people living in the remote areas such as Karnali have been benefitted from numerous social security related programs. The doubling of social assistance is enhancing social protection of those who are in such nets. However, social security programs lack effectiveness compared to increased budget, scattered programs implemented through different agencies in many instances in an adhoc basis without effective coordinated implementation mechanism has made the outcomes less beneficial and effective from the standpoint of intended beneficiaries. One of the serious challenges in the areas of social security is that still all workers working in the informal economy consisting of more than 96 per cent of the total labor force are outside the purview of social security program. The new Integrated Social Security act has also not covered the workers in the informal sector. Similarly, it encompasses through many ambiguities and overlaps. A big chunk of entitled population is deprived of getting the benefits of such programs. More worryingly, out of them, most deprived are disabled.
