2010 Social Impact Report and Summary
Published in 2011
REDF is dedicated to using data and evidence to improve its practice and the field of social enterprise. Our measurement and evaluation work includes tracking of social enterprise employees over time, development of Social Return on Investment methodology and reporting, and other efforts that capture development of non-profit capacity and other key indicators. In 2011, REDF will launch a rigorous evaluation effort to strengthen further its learning on how social enterprises and the jobs created by social enterprise impact people’s lives.
REDF’s Social Impact Report 2010 reports on one aspect of this work, highlighting key findings based on data collected by BTW informing change from 1163 individuals employed in social enterprises between 1998 and 2008. These individuals were interviewed when hired into a social enterprise and then tracked for up to 24 months after hire; the methodology section of this report provides further details on this process.
