The grant contributed to shaping the design and targeting of an economic inclusion intervention in the south of Madagascar. It also supported the capacity building of government staff and NGO implementing agencies. Under the grant, international and local consultants facilitated learning activities to build an incremental understanding of the graduation approach among government staff and country counterparts. The grant enabled the development of local assessments and programming tools: a review of existing livelihood support schemes in the country, a households’ drought impact assessment to identify household livelihood strategies and integrate them into the project design,an operational manual and a targeting plan to guide the implementation of the economic inclusion intervention.
