Two randomized controlled trials (RCTs) of the DREAMS (Delivering Resilient Enterprises and Market Systems) program—implemented by Village Enterprise and Mercy Corps—found that participating households saw meaningful economic gains within a year, even in some of the world’s most challenging refugee settings.
