have full bellies.”

NW: Support Expansion along Natural Pathways
Animators reporting that women were started other saving groups on their own -- sharing with their existing networks!
Started providing training & coaching to them from the beginning
Can increase project impact by 10 times for little cost

NW: Unnatural Bridging for Learning, Deep Reflection and
Innovation
• Overlapping clusters • Animators from different areas meet together
regularly to share what they are noticing - stream innovations from one area to another
• Getting women in villages to bring new ideas to village elders
• Getting NGOs to work together

How can networks in different countries share & learn?
How can NGOs work collaboratively so that a stream of new strategies are introduced
and supported?
