Social Evaluation

Understanding and measuring social impact is becoming increasingly critical as stakeholders demand more accountability, efficiency and effectiveness in investments in the social economy. 

If you are a NFPO or NGO you will benefit greatly from being able to articulate the change you make in your programs. 

If you are a corporate you will face increasing pressure to demonstrate the effectiveness of you social investments. You may also wish to measure and manage the “social footprint” of your organisations core operations. 

For governments, you will be seeking to evaluate the effectiveness of policy and programs to deliver the social impact it was designed to deliver.
