The Building State Capability faculty at the Harvard Center for International Development developed Problem Driven Iterative Adaptation (PDIA), a process of facilitated emergence which focuses on problems (not solutions) and follows a step by step process (not a rigid plan) that allows for flexible learning and adaptation. Doing project management differently; a customized architecture of local solutions for local problems.

The problem construction and deconstruction process in PDIA: mobilizes local talent, fosters broader conversations, engages authorizers and contextualizes policy.
 
The iterative experimentation, structured learning and adaptation in PDIA: empowers action by local people, facilitates emergence of local solutions and creates new capabilities to solve problems.
