Agree
This step fosters agreement on the scaling strategy and the scaling action plan among the key stakeholders.
Concepts
Without broad stakeholder agreement, the implementation of the scaling strategy is likely to fail
Practices
Faciliated learning and negotiation foster stakeholder agreement on the scaling strategy and the scaling action plan
Step 4 Objectives
Step 4 achieves the following 2 objectives:
- Objective 4.1: To reach agreement with the relevant stakeholders on the draft scaling strategy and the scaling action plan.
- Objective 4.2: To document the agreed-upon scaling strategy and the scaling action plan for the different intervention locations.
If stakeholders cannot agree on the proposed scaling strategy, then additional strategic options proposed as part of Step 3 need to be considered. Once the stakeholders have agreed on the scaling strategy and the scaling action plan, the user proceeds to Step 5.
Implementation
The implementation of Step 4 is facilitated through a coherent set of 2 activities and 6 sub-activities
- Objective 4.1: To reach agreement with the relevant stakeholders on the draft scaling strategy and the scaling action plan.
- Activity 4.1: Organize and implement a workshop to agree on the scaling strategy and the scaling action plan.
- Sub-activity 4.1.1: Organize a preparatory meeting to plan the workshop and follow up on decisions taken.
- Sub-activity 4.1.2: Introduce purposes, participants, and initial findings from Scaling Readiness.
- Sub-activity 4.1.3: Reach agreement on the scaling strategy.
- Sub-activity 4.1.4: Develop operational scaling action plans.
- Activity 4.1: Organize and implement a workshop to agree on the scaling strategy and the scaling action plan.
- Objective 4.2: To document the agreed-upon scaling strategy and scaling action plan for the different intervention locations.
- Activity 4.2: Document, review, and finalize the scaling strategy and the scaling action plan for the different intervention locations.
- Sub-activity 4.2.1: Develop and share the draft workshop report, which includes the proposed scaling strategy and scaling action plan.
- Sub-activity 4.2.2: Incorporate feedback from participants and share the final workshop report, which includes the scaling strategy and the scaling action plan.
- Activity 4.2: Document, review, and finalize the scaling strategy and the scaling action plan for the different intervention locations.
