1. 11 Scaling Concepts Taking Action for the World’s Poor and Hungry People October 09, 2007 PRELIMINARY DRAFT

2. 22 Why Scaling Rarely Happens  Lack of accountability (lots of pilots... no real measurement)  Dependence on individual leaders, contexts  Lack of adaptive management approaches and scaling mechanisms  Lack of resources, short project cycles  Lack of coordination, buy in from all players needed to scale  Missing elements (low social capital or enabling environment etc.)

4. 44 Scaling: Essential Investment Elements Enabling Environment  Markets  Regulations, Institutions  Financing mechanisms  Risk mitigation mechanisms DisruptiveSupportive People Smallholder Communities and Organization (Social Capital)  Social cohesion  Education, ability to learn WeakStrong Management and Distribution Networks  Adaptive management systems  Good quality management skills Weak Strong Improved Technology / Intervention  Product  Process Simple Complex Scaling strategy depends on Overall value created and captured by small holder (know our customer) Size of market – extent of relevance (agro-climatic zones etc)

5. 55 Scaling Phase Definition DescriptionExperimentation with hypothesis/key ideas  Test the idea in multiple cases  Prove with rigorous M&E  Demonstrate at enough scale to be convincing »Different contexts »Not dependent on individual founder  Take proven intervention to maximum scale and ensure sustainability through system shift Key question“Does this idea work?” (What is the DNA?) “Can this idea be replicated?” (Can DNA be duplicated?)  Does this idea work in multiple diverse contexts? Do we have scaling mechanism partner? Is there a learning process in place for adaptation  Is this sustainability through private sector or government?  Self-reinforcing?  Self-regeneration?

8. 88 Lessons Learned  Resources matter – may need to be the first in with $  Long term commitment – a sustained effort with clear path to ownership by government and/or private sector  Adaptive skilled management with clear feedback metrics/measure  Clear goal and proven value from intervention – all actors must have this shared vision.  Leadership matters. It’s not everything but without it there is little.  Advocacy and promotion early in process-scientific and policy maker acceptance key  Investment in underlying systems (training, impact assessment and technical support)
