Building Capital in Crisis

This report provides insights from three VSLA in Emergency (VSLAiE) pilots conducted in Yemen, Syria, and Jordan. This includes the end of pilot findings from Syria and Jordan as well as the results from our Yemen sustainability study. As a result of funding from IDEAL Small Grants Program, CARE has been able to return to communities in Yemen, one year after the end of the first cycle and observe the sustainability of the gains from the pilot. The report demonstrates that all locations have seen successes in establishing VSLAiE groups.

This report was made possible by a grant from the Implementer-Led Design, Evidence, Analysis and Learning (IDEAL) Activity.
