What are we solving for?
We are solving for households in poverty who are also financially and socially vulnerable through a targeted, multi-faceted, and sequenced model called the graduation approach, which has demonstrated that we can durably pull households out of poverty.

- Continue to iterate on the program design to create impact at scale through our own implementation efforts
- Support more NGOs in adopting the graduation approach by offering technical expertise and capacity building
