What is social value ?

Social value is the quantification of the relative importance that people place on the changes they experience in their lives. Some, but not all of this value is captured in market prices. It is important to consider and measure this social value from the perspective of those affected by an organisation’s work.

For Business

Using the Principles of Social Value can help business identify risks and opportunities and provide a framework for assessing whether the business should actively manage them.

For Investors

The Principles of Social Value can be used as part of the due diligence process for making an investment.

For Commissioners

Commissioners can use the Principles of Social Value in a number of different ways. Social value can help explore what types of value the market can provide for exploring the outcomes.

For Organisations With A Social Purpose

Organisations which have social objectives will want to know if they are achieving these objectives.
