Course overview

Why measure social impact? Every organisation can and should measure their social impact, especially in these uncertain times, because evaluation is key to securing both continued and future funding. Indeed, funding often depends on reporting your social impact clearly and concisely to funders who want to know their investment is making a real difference.

Planning is essential to the social impact evaluation of your organisation or project because it can be complex, expensive and time consuming. This course will help you understand the key social impact evaluation principles and plan an evaluation of your own.
