Is It Possible to Measure Systems Change? | SkollWF 2019

Social entrepreneurs, funders, business, and civil society leaders want to create systemic impact. But how can we best measure progress towards systems change? In this interactive workshop, participants will dive into case studies and explore different approaches to addressing this question. Attendees will walk away with a stronger understanding of both the challenges of capturing systemic impact and how they might apply new measurement methodologies in their own systems work.
