Description The global development community is teeming with different ideas and interventions to improve the lives of the world's poorest people. This book explores what it takes to expand the reach of development solutions beyond an individual village or pilot program so they serve poor people everywhere.

Publisher Description

Visit any developing country and you will find governments, international donors, NGOs, and corporations involved in a range of innovative activities to address the needs of the poor. Only a fraction of those that show promise at a localized level, however, will ever be replicated, expanded, and sustained toachieve a transformative impact. Learning how to expand the reach of proven interventions so that they help larger numbers of poor people—"scaling up"—is a fundamental challenge facing the developing world. This book improves our understanding of how scaling up can be achieved and what the international community can do to support the process.
