Why did we create this?

This impact framework allows us to:

• Track impact data in a more systematic and quantitative way
• Track the medium and long-term impacts of BfE on different stakeholders
• Understand the breadth and scope of impact data collection within BfE

​

In turn, data stemming from this impact framework can be used for:

• Rich, disaggregated insights that can drive internal strategy
• Communication of our impact to external stakeholders

​

In short: without this spreadsheet, we would be constantly guessing at the how, what, and why behind our impact measurement process.
