What is an innovation plan:

​

The design of the Innovation Plan intends to support participants in capitalising on the knowledge acquired during the Learning Route in Rwanda, transforming this knowledge into practical actions to strengthen SUN Civil Societies Alliances’ coordinated activities to address malnutrition.

​

While an initial draft of the innovation plan was developed during the Learning Route. Upon return,  each country delegation organized cascade learning sessions to share key learning and revise, refine and validate the innovation plan before the final submission.

​

Each innovation plan has been developed responding the following criteria:

​

>> build on the CSA's existing work

>> build on new ideas gained from the LR exchange

>> be practical to implement within 6 months

>> be sustainable both economically and practically

>> have potential to scale up or be replicated

​

Each innovation plan took inspiration from 1 or more than one case study of the Learning Route.
