The development of social security policies and programmes raises the need for their coordination to enhance effectiveness as well as to prevent the fragmentation of social policies, programmes and services. Although there are expected benefits, implementing coordinated programmes poses significant technical challenges, which increase the complexities and costs of projects and hinder the achievement of such initiatives. Some of the main difficulties are related to system and information integration (Interoperability) as well as the ability to enforce data security and privacy regulations. To help meet such challenges, the International Social Security Association (ISSA) has developed Guidelines on Information and Communication Technology to support the integrated ICT-based implementation of social programmes. This article reviews existing scenarios, discusses the benefits and challenges of coordinated approaches, and offers models to show how to implement such types of systems while applying the ISSA Guidelines.

协调社会项目：基于 ISSA ICT 指南的情景分析和实施方法

社会保障政策和计划的制定提出了对其进行协调的需要，以提高有效性并防止社会政策、计划和服务分散化。尽管有预期的好处，但实施协调计划带来了重大的技术挑战，这增加了项目的复杂性和成本，并阻碍了此类举措的实现。一些主要困难与系统和信息集成（互操作性）以及执行数据安全和隐私法规的能力有关。为帮助应对这些挑战，国际社会保障协会 (ISSA) 制定了信息和通信技术指南，以支持基于 ICT 的社会计划的综合实施。
