The Household Economic Strengthening Community of Practice brought HES researchers and practitioners together to lead workshops and explore the current state of the HES practice. The SEEP initiative, part of FHI 360's ASPIRE project and funded by USAID hosted two research dialogue workshops that identified research gaps and a pathway to reducing vulnerability. The two research dialogues produced several presentations, including the following:

• Expanding the Toolkit for Complex Evaluation
• HES State of the Practice Background
• Outcomes for Children from Household Economic Strengthening Interventions
• The Economic Dimensions of PMTCT
• Economic Strengthening Prevention of Family-Child Separation, and Reintegration of Children into Family Care
• A Randomized Study Evaluating an Intervention Integrating Economic Strengthening and HIV Prevention Programs for Vulnerable Youth in South Africa
• Cost-effectiveness of Economic Empowering Intervention for AIDS-Affected Children in Uganda
• Economic Strengthening and HIV Outcomes
