In collaboration with Build for Good, BAGUS Together ran a second iteration of the Intro to Impact Measurement workshop in November 2024! 🎯
Our sincere appreciation to Joel Koh, Principal Consultant (ASEAN) at The Social Investment Consultancy for sharing your expertise and thank you to all participants of the Build for Good Accelerator Programme for joining us!
Key takeaways:
📌 Successful impact evaluation requires a whole team effort, not just the founder or the core team.
📌 The Theory of Change is not a static and linear process, but rather a 'living and breathing' framework that is constantly changing.
📌 When collecting data and justifying impact, don't just focus on collecting more data, focus on collecting the right data.
With this, we conclude our Building Blocks workshops for the year. Keep a look out for more events coming your way in 2025! 😊
