Scaling the Graduation approach through governments to empower 4.6 million households to escape extreme poverty by 2026.

About us

BRAC, the world’s largest NGO, wanted to help previously unreachable people in extreme poverty build sustainable livelihoods long-term. So, in 2002 we pioneered the Graduation approach - a holistic sequence of interventions that empowers people to escape the poverty trap for good. When LSE researchers found 95 percent of participants in Bangladesh continued improving their living standards seven years after the intervention ended, we knew Graduation had the potential to transform lives. Building on that success, BRAC Ultra-Poor Graduation Initiative aims to scale Graduation through governments worldwide to enable 4.6 million more households to escape extreme poverty by 2026, integrating with existing programs and supporting policy change to better meet the needs of people experiencing the most severe poverty.
