Social Protection of Mobile Population:A Case Study of Nine Inland Cities in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Area
The social protection level of cross-regional mobile population serves as an indicator of urban integra-tion and development.This paper uses the Social Protection Index(SPI)proposed by the Asian Development Bank to assess the social protection level of the mobile population in the Guangdong-Hong Kong-Macao Greater Bay Ar-ea and identifies associated challenges and governance strategies.Empirical results indicate that the social protec-tion systems in the nine inland cities of the Greater Bay Area can be categorized into welfare-based,savings-based,and insurance-based models,with notable differences in policy characteristics and the scope of protection.The pa-per recommends optimizing the social protection system in the Area by enhancing policy quality,addressing di-verse social security needs for better coordination,and creating a"Bay Area model"for mobile population through cross-boundary coordination mechanisms.
