The terms “impact” and “impact measurement” are used frequently, so this webinar will be used to dig deeper into what it is that these two terms signify. We will explore why IDIS and CAF Russia decided to invest in this methodology and how they have created a market for this, as well as the challenges and the opportunities this has unlocked for the sector in their respective countries.

This webinar is the first part of a webinar series offered by Social Value International in partnership with Charities Aid Foundation.

SVI and CAF Impact Measurement webinar series: Focus on impact measurement has grown over the years from reporting, monitoring and evaluation to attribution. Have we gone far enough or have we gone too far? How do you find a balance in your approach to impact when trying to find ways to utilise it to strengthen your programmes, understand what is and isn’t working and continue to learn. This is a 3 part series aimed at sharing experiences in impact measurement in Russia and Brazil. The series will explore questions such as:

• How is social impact measurement understood in these countries and how can it help address a need?
• What have the been the key building blocks in integrating social impact into a programme, as well as an offer?
• How has impact measurement grown in these countries and why?
• What are some examples of work that have utilised the SROI methodology – what works and what doesn’t? what are the challenges?
• What is the potential for this space?
