The development and professionalization of the philanthropy sector has gone hand in hand with an increase in the number of causes and charities to support. Today, it is about going beyond the subject of giving and looking at how to 'give well': not only must we ensure that donations have a positive impact on beneficiaries and society, but we must also ensure that we maximize their effectiveness.
What is the impact of philanthropy ? How can it be measured ? What is the purpose of impact measurements and what exactly do we want to measure? What are the different existing methods, their advantages and their limits ? How can you choose the most appropriate one for your project ?
