IMPACT MEASURING SYSTEM GUIDE This document has been created to assist you in developing an effective impact measurement system for the programmes delivered to young people. This approach was supported by the steps outlined in the BOSS project toolkit and supports Beyond Horizons partners in implementing a structured approach to evaluating the outcomes of their initiatives. By following the below approach, it will support you in understanding the true impact of your work, identifying areas for improvement, and demonstrating the value of your efforts to stakeholders.
1. Define the Scope of the Project: What is your objective? What is the timescale of the project? What are the resources you have to undertake the project? Who do you need to showcase the impacts to – participants, funders, parents?
2. Identify Stakeholders: Who are your participants (Age range, demographics, experience, issues, abilities / disabilities) Who else needs to be involved (funders, teachers, youth leaders, parents)
