The Centre for Social Impact has released a handy document called The Compass. It is a thorough, yet simple guide to help organisations best measure the positive social impact they are having.
‘This guide is for everyone working towards the creation of positive social impact in Australia and who wants to know if they are making a difference.’
Identifying, evaluating and communicating our social outcomes is essential for all charities and this guide can be used as a tool to effectively do that. It will also help you learn the difference between outputs, outcomes and impact.
The Centre for Social Impact says:
‘We measure what matters, and The Compass is here to help you understand how you can measure what matters too.’
