High and persistent vulnerability to health shocks is exacerbated by physical and financial limitations that impede access to healthcare, as well as the limited medical insurance system (GoTG, 2014a). Moreover, differential social vulnerabilities exacerbate the exposure of people to climate risks, as well as to discrimination and poverty. The National Social Protection Policy identifies the following particularly vulnerable population sub- groups: extremely poor individuals and households, vulnerable children, the elderly, people with disabilities, the chronically ill, individuals and families affected by HIV, vulnerable women and youth, refugees and migrants, and prison inmates and their families
