SCALE is an initiative funded by USAID’s Bureau for Humanitarian Assistance (BHA) to enhance the impact, sustainability, and scalability of BHA-funded agriculture, natural resource management, and alternative livelihoods activities in emergency and non-emergency contexts. SCALE is implemented by Mercy Corps in collaboration with Save the Children.
You can find SCALE’s collection of resources by thematic area below. These collections were started under SCALE and will continue to expand under PRO-WASH & SCALE.

SCALE partners with food security implementers and the broader research community to capture, generate, apply and share knowledge to foster more resilient agricultural systems and enhance income opportunities for the world’s most vulnerable.
Current priority technical areas for SCALE include: small-scale agroecological production solutions; social and behavior change approaches for agriculture, livelihoods and natural resource management-related activities; production in fragile and conflict-affected contexts; and youth engagement in alternative livelihoods. Please reach out to us if you are interested in collaborating on these or related activities.
