The Impacts of the Graduation Approach on Health and Women’s Empowerment

Date: 26 Jun 2025

This resource provides an overview of how the Graduation approach impacts health and women’s empowerment. The Graduation approach was not designed with a health focus–nor have studies of the approach been designed to focus on health outcomes–various studies suggest it has positive impacts on a range of health outcomes, including child health and nutrition. Further research is needed to more precisely measure health impacts, as well as to determine if programmes with a health focus have greater impacts on health.
