Impact & the Sustainable Development Goals
We don't present our work as scattered activities but as an integrated matrix linked to the UN's seventeen goals. Hover over any goal to see what is linked to it, and click to filter projects.
How do we measure impact?
We build indicators on impact (income opportunities, delivered projects, changes in practice), not outputs (number of activities and trainees). Every new project starts with a baseline and measures before and after delivery.
A note on the figures
Indicators for the new initiatives are year-one targets (2026–2027). The figures actually delivered are those of the three courses on the courses page.
