Abstract
The contribution highlights certain core elements which inform the context within which social protection and labour law protection in the SADC (i.e. the Southern African Development Community) region is bound to operate. Given the inadequate social protection and labour law protection in the SADC region, the article suggests that responses at both regional (SADC) and country level are needed, and investigates some of the distinct and innovative developments in the region which potentially form the basis for fostering social protection. It examines different possibilities for the coordination of social security measures in SADC, bearing in mind experiences elsewhere, stressing in particular the possibility of adopting an international or regional minimum standards and human rights baseline approach for purposes of social security coordination in the region and the strengthening of social and labour law protection in the SADC region.
