AnnotationIn this report, the term "social pension" is used to refer to non-contributory pensions. Universal non-contributory pensions are distinguished from those that are means-tested. This summary of the report published by HelpAge International outlines the case for social pensions in tackling old age and child poverty. They are also feasible and affordable, having public and political support. (RH).
