This workshop brings together the 22 Local Coordinators of the UCC, in addition to all sectors that use the UCC to identify their potential beneficiaries, and will analyze the challenges of the UCC in the management process of social policies in Cape Verde; contribute to improving the quality of the UCC, through control and participation mechanisms, and establish procedures for articulation between the UCC and the sectors that implement social programs.
It should be noted that the Single Social Registry is a tool for identification, registration, operationalization of information and socioeconomic classification of individuals and their households, primarily in situations of poverty and vulnerability.
