The effectiveness of social support depends, first and foremost, on the accessibility of social institutions to any citizen of the country. Modern information technologies are fundamentally expanding the possibilities for making this accessibility higher.

Discussion points: • Is it necessary and how to move towards targeting in the provision of social services to the population? • What tasks are solved by the so-called social treasury? • How feasible and realistic is the proactive delivery of social services to the population? • What are the functions, place and role of the social contract in the social protection system and what are the prospects for its wide application?
