SSE & Value creation : "A prospective approach to social impact measurement" - summury

A prospective approach to social impact measurement

Avise, La Fonda and Le Labo de l’ESS took the initiative in 2016 to launch an in-depth study on the subject of social impact measurement, bringing together ESS organisations, experts, assessment stakeholders, project leaders and funders, all of whom came together as part of workshops to promote collective intelligence. 

Entitled "SSE & Value Creation", the study kicked off in January 2017 and drew to a close in June 2019. Its aim was to offer a fresh view of impact assessment and to pave the way for experimentation with these new approaches.

In conclusion, the "SSE & Value Creation" study offers project leaders and organisations of social utility a thoughtful analysis, as well as strategic approaches, enabling them to re-establish their own understanding of the issue of assessing their social impact.
