Are your impact measurement practices good enough?
Come and learn about the Common Foundations -- five essential practices that are a minimum standard for impact measurement!
The Common Approach to Impact Measurement is a community of non-profits, social enterprises, grant makers, investors and academics building a better way to measure social impact. Using this flexible standard will allow social purpose organizations to effectively tell its story, communicate with a wide variety of stakeholders and operate in a high impact manner.
The Common Approach, in collaboration with CCEDNet, is excited to present this webinar as part of the Common Approach Webinar Series on Zoom. In this one hour session, Margerit Rogers of CCEDNet will take an in-depth look at one of the four standards being promoted by the Common Approach to Impact Measurement - the Common Foundations. This work is being led by Common Approach’s partner CCEDNet. The webinar will take place on October 15, 2020 @ 1:00pm EDT.
The COVID-19 crisis has been a wake up call for governments and civil society. The disproportionate impacts of the pandemic to health, the economy, environment and society as a whole are being experienced by individuals, families and communities across the country and the globe. As we look to recovery and approach the International Day for the Eradication of Poverty on October 17th, how can we ensure one which is transformational, equitable and sustainable?
A Just Recovery for All, a movement born out of the crisis and puts people first, to date has over 200 Canadian organizations as signatories to the six principles. Join speakers from member organizations of this movement - Climate Action Network, Citizens for Public Justice and The Leap, to discuss the framework and what it means for collectively ending poverty and creating lasting systems change.
But, a resilient recovery for Manitoba could look like renewable energy projects led by First Nations providing jobs and prosperity to communities. It could look like rural communities reaping local benefits while strengthening provincial food security. Or, it could look like government or institutions purchasing from inner city enterprises that support local hiring from marginalized communities.
In the midst of fear and worry, these and many more Community Economic Development (CED) innovations are equitable, just, and sustainable practices that could be at the heart of economic recovery and development across Manitoba.
You can be part of the growing number of Manitobans committed to our resilient recovery through CED.
By joining the live stream on October 7th, you will gain knowledge of innovatinve community projects and connect these with a broader understanding of Manitoba’s economic picture.
Tune in and you will find out what’s needed to encourage the provincial and municipal governments to support a resilient recovery through CED with innovative public policy decisions.
