About us
Impact Consulting partners with organisations working in social development we guide them to better understand their contexts, successes and challenges.
Â
Through regular monitoring and evaluation and learning, and innovative information management, we enable them to achieve maximum positive impact and to continuously learn and improve.
âEnhance the positive social impact you want to achieve.â
How we work
Our team of experts work with your organisation to clarify the social change you wish to affect. During this process, weâll provide key insights into the external forces and challenges that you can expect to face. Once you have a better understanding of the bigger picture, weâll team up to strategise the most effective way of achieving the desired change, help you to plan for stable resourcing, and align all your activities towards maximising your positive impact.Â
Â
We will also assist with internal monitoring processes and information management systems; and implement evaluations so you can track and enhance the positive social impact you want to achieve, and continuously learn. We support your learning through reflection and learning facilitation and documenting of lessons.  Â
Â
We have coordinated many complex, multi-country research and evaluation studies, involving fieldwork in often challenging contexts. We are adaptable, we keep a positive, collaborative attitude, we are culturally sensitive, and we always deliver quality results. We have strong qualitative and quantitative analytic skills, as well as ability to analyse findings against context due to our extensive experience conducting realist evaluations. We are particularly interested in strategic reviews, which allow for meta-thinking, cross-programme learning, and organisation-wide learning.
Â
We are committed to improving positive impact through our work, whilst enhancing sustainability of the impact, with a feminist and decolonised approach.
Values and principles
Our work is governed by the core principles of participation, transformation and contextual cognisance. Our processes are human rights-based, systematic and people-centred. We operate within feminist principles and, from our base in Africa, we are deeply committed to decolonising MEL approaches, tools and practices and working.Â
Â
Our organisational structure allows us to offer flexible solutions, and to deploy our team of experts in creative and cost-efficient ways, saving resources without compromising on quality and integrity.
