We help you identify what matters in tracking and communicating your impact, support you in metrics development, and conduct research and evaluations to track progress and leverage long-term social impact, social justice and rights promotion, and positive environmental changes.
We work with donors, corporates or impact investors using a participatory approach to develop, update and/or manage a set of reliable impact metrics and reporting processes to measure social impact and sustainability.

Impact Report of Malala Fund's COVID-19 response: In 2021, we were excited to support the team in aligning their monitoring and evaluation systems with their COVID-19 grantmaking strategy. Through a participatory process, we worked with the Malala Fund team and analyzed their grantmaking data and grantee report data, created impact indicators and metrics for their funding portfolio, and wrote an Impact Report of Malala Fund's COVID-19 response efforts.
ImpactMapper completed a synthesis evaluation of 57 country UNFPA program reports to take stock of lessons learned around three transformative results: ending maternal mortality, eliminating gender based violence and harmful practices and ensuring access to family planning.

The full report and the Lessons Learned policymaking brief can be found here.
