AFF holds its first series of capacity development modules, led by SVI

In partnership with Social Value International (SVI), AFF held a series of capacity development modules entitled “Impact Measurement and Management” in May and June 2022.  The masterclass sessions delivered by SVI exclusively for Arab Foundations Forum members provided participants with the building blocks to develop their journey of measuring and managing impacts.

The three interactive sessions provided opportunities to examine best-practice and share experiences on challenges and solutions to creating more impactful investments and activities.

The ultimate aim of the session was to examine the key requirements needed to effectively embed impact management, sustainable development and contributions to the Sustainable Development Goals (SDGs) into the decision-making structures and systems of organizations.

The program brought together key complementary frameworks based on the Principles of Social Value and the United Nations Development Programme (UNDP) SDG Impact Standards, to examine how to effectively measure the impacts of activities and investments, the need to focus on the impacts of materially affected stakeholders and manage impact performance, and how to effectively embed sustainable development and an approach to managing for impacts.
