GRADUATION APPROACH 2017-2018 PHASE EVALUATION

The Graduation Approach is one pragmatic approach (among others) to help the extreme poor move into sustainable livelihoods through the self-employment that is their only viable option given the lack of salary- or wage-paying jobs. This model targets vulnerable, economically excluded and chronically food-insecure and malnourished families.

The approach is built on five core elements: consumption support, savings, an asset transfer, technical skills training, and regular life skills coaching.
