autreThe non-take-up of social benefits has an important impact on the effectiveness and efficiency of social benefits in general and social assistance benefits in particular. In spite of a growing literature on non-take-up, quite some questions remain regarding its measurement, causes, consequences and most effective remedies. A related question is the extent to which coverage of social security schemes varies across time, policies and countries. Measurement of coverage remains a contested topic in comparative research, with room for improvement. Therefore, the University of Antwerp and the Federal Public Service for Social Security (Belgium) organised an expert workshop on non-take-up and coverage of social security and social assistance benefits in developed welfare states. This workshop brought together experts from academia and public administrations, to discuss new advances in research, best practices related to monitoring coverage and non-take-up, as well as innovative policies that aim to limit the (negative effects of) non-take-up of social benefits. We welcomed both qualitative and quantitative research, as well as policy and field experiences.
