ABSTRACT
In their introduction to this book, Edwards and Hulme distinguish strategies which are ‘additive’ – implying an increase in the size of an organisation and programme, ‘multiplicative’ – where impact is achieved through deliberate influence, training, and networking among other organisations, and ‘diffusive’ – where spread is informal and spontaneous. They further distinguish four strategies for scaling-up or having a wider impact. These are:
working with government
organisational growth
linking the grassroots with lobbying and advocacy
advocacy in the North
