Ultra-poor Graduation Program
The Ultra-Poor Graduation Program is a comprehensive approach designed to help the very poorest households lift themselves out of extreme poverty. It combines targeted cash transfers with skills training, health and nutrition support, and income-generating activities. The goal is to provide immediate relief while building long-term resilience, enabling people to become self-sufficient. By addressing multiple aspects of poverty simultaneously, the program aims to create sustainable improvements in living standards, empower individuals, and reduce dependence on aid. It has been successfully implemented in various countries to break the cycle of extreme poverty.
