ExpandNet Activities

Providing technical
assistance to country projects
ExpandNet has developed a methodology to work with country teams in a facilitated
process of developing scaling-up strategies. The methodology entails working
through the Nine Step Guide to Develop a Scaling-up Strategy and the associated
worksheets with country teams in a participatory process, undertaking field
trips with senior program managers to understand the environment in which
scaling
up
takes
place, and
finally culminates in a multi-stakeholder workshop. Ongoing technical assistance
is provided to countries and projects who seek such support.

Workshops on scaling up
ExpandNet promotes wider information-sharing about scaling up
through workshops, meetings, and facilitating
South-to-South exchange. In addition to holding periodic meetings on critical
issues of scaling up, ExpandNet/WHO has provided a number of workshops for
technical assistance agencies to share approaches and lessons learned.

Development of guidance tools
ExpandNet
has developed a number of guidance tools to support scaling up and
will continue to do so in the future.

Using information
technology to share knowledge and experience
ExpandNet plans to organize an interactive online seminar
on
scaling
up
for
the members
of the
IBP
Consortium
in late
September 2008. To

The
ExpandNet website
ExpandNet is dedicated to wide sharing of information of lessons and experience
about scaling up from around the world with the public. Materials produced
by WHO/ExpandNet are made freely available on this website. We hope that
the public health community will inform us of how our tools are being used
in the field by contacting us.
Some ExpandNet members and colleagues with whom we have worked in countries
have provided their insights about scaling up in the form of video interviews.
Please visit the ExpandNet Discussion
Series.
ExpandNet maintains and updates on this website a
bibliography of scaling
up-related materials and resources. We
hope visitors find this useful and are encouraged to provide us
with
other
links
or references
by contacting
us.
