Libya launches new social registry to target support for vulnerable citizens
Prime Minister Abdulhamid Dbeibah has approved a new 'Unified Social Registry' to better target government support to those most in need. The initiative, presented by Social Affairs Minister Wafaa Al‑Kilani, aims to consolidate and cross‑reference social and economic data, allowing authorities to identify eligible beneficiaries with greater precision and transparency.
The registry uses a classification system based on income, health status and family size, and will be updated periodically to maintain accurate information. According to Al‑Kilani, the scheme is designed to protect the most vulnerable and reduce social and economic risks, making it a cornerstone of Libya's wider efforts to foster social cohesion and support economic stability.
The project is expected to improve living standards for a broad segment of the population by streamlining access to essential services and financial aid. News Tagged: Ministry of Social Affairs
