official start or introduction of the project to stakeholders and participants

the initial rollout refers to the first broad implementation of an intervention after the prototyping and piloting phases. It aims to test the intervention on a larger scale while still allowing for adjustments based on feedback

this phase involves expanding the intervention to a broader audience or additional regions. It focuses on further refining and standardizing the intervention to ensure consistency and effectiveness across different contexts​

the large-scale rollout is the final phase of scaling up, where the intervention is implemented on a wide scale, often nationally or internationally, ensuring it reaches a substantial part of the relevant population
