Impact measurement

Impact measurement is a core feature of today’s world, with funders, executives and trustees demanding to see the effect of their funding, staff and projects on their target audiences.  Measuring impact well is often difficult, mired in issues around perspectives, scale and unintended consequences.

ERC can help you with impact measurement, providing external and neutral support to identify conflicting perspectives within a team, to interview stakeholders and partners in a way that allows them to share difficult topics, and by providing practical support in the planning, implementation and results phases of your impact measurement process.
