Social Welfare
Social welfare is closely connected to the political, economic, and psychosocial health of a society. Either governments or NGO’s play roles of ensuring social welfare systems are in place to ensure progress in the social development sphere. In the case of natural disasters or war torn nations, the social welfare infrastructure and systems are weakened. A country’s social welfare capacity often is beyond it’s threshold, unable to sustain and meet the needs of the mass population impacted.
This is where international relief agencies fulfill their role. They strive to provide additional capacity, ideally over the short-term until a country can get back on it’s feet, that contributes to social welfare.
