Scaling Impact with a Replication & Transfer Training!

Thanks to two Replication and Transfer experts within Ashoka, Alexander Kesselring and Löic van Cutsem, the Changemaker United initiative held a customized Replication and Transfer workshop to help accelerate the work of five social entrepreneurs in the Changemakers United initiative.

One way to scale a solution’s impact is to bring the solution to new regions or new countries and make it more accessible throughout the world. Five Social Innovators in the Changemakers United initiative are working towards scaling their Covid-19 related solutions in this way. What an exciting step with many challenges on the way.

The online workshop supported participants in fine-tuning their Replication and Transfer strategy. Based on their first-hand experience in working with Ashoka Fellows, the two facilitators shared and discussed benchmark cases and how to apply successful Replication and Transfer strategies to the social entrepreneurs’ scaling projects.

Online break-out groups enabled the participants to focus more closely on the challenges at hand and experiment with the unique Replication and Transfer tools that Ashoka uses in its work.

All participants shared in the final survey that the experience was excellent. And even more important: They shared that they will engage their management and teams in using the tools and exercises provided to finalize their strategy for replicating and scaling their solutions!
