This initiative highlights our commitment to enhancing the effectiveness of social impact monitoring and SDG compliance through innovative, collaborative tools. By facilitating better measurement and reporting practices, we support organisations in achieving greater impact efficacy, transparency, and strategic alignment with global developmental goals. This refines organisations’ reporting practices and improves their overall strategic impact on development.
We have conducted a comprehensive analysis of several European philanthropic organisations’ experiences in social impact monitoring, specifically in how they measure against the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs). This analysis was benchmarked against similar national and international experiences by the private and public sectors. We combine a variety of financial and non-financial resources to identify, assess, coordinate, and support self-sustaining, systemic, and scalable solutions—applicable to both for-profit and non-profit sectors—to address development challenges and achieve maximum impact. We developed a prototype for the dashboard designed to facilitate information sharing and collaboration when reporting on SDG targets by philanthropic organisations and partners.
Key Take-aways
In-depth Comparative Analysis: Reviewed and compared social impact monitoring strategies used by European philanthropic organisations against SDGs, with those implemented by their national and international private and public sector counterparts.
Dashboard Prototype Development: Designed a prototype dashboard that promotes effective information sharing and collaboration between philanthropic entities and their partners.
Resource Integration: Combined various financial and non-financial resources to support the development of self-sustaining, systemic, and scalable solutions—both for-profit and not-for-profit. These solutions are designed to address development challenges effectively and maximise impact.
