Know Your Impact

Through the Center for Public and Nonprofit Leadership at Georgetown University, VIA’s Maria Posey and Veena Pankaj teach a 4-hour course on social impact evaluation which guides participants on a journey to clarify their pathway to impact and explore how metrics, data, and organizational culture come together to enable an organization to continuously learn and grow.

As part of the United Charitable’s Changemaker Series for its member organizations, VIA facilitated a 2-part workshop on social impact evaluation. The first part of the workshop included a lecture on how to develop outcome and impact metrics. The second part involved participants’ applying the learning by mapping out how they might operationalize evaluation and learning in their organizations. We concluded with a group discussion to explore insights, challenges, and A-ha moments.
