The Social Impact Analysts Association is holding its inaugural meeting today amid calls for greater recognition of the importance of impact analysis and warnings that the progress of the practice and profession needs to be handled with great care.
Dan Corry has just joined New Philanthropy Capital as CEO. He discusses his priorities with Vibeka Mair.
The Early Action Task Force has said the conventional language of 'prevention' used around early-action projects presupposes problems, victims and perpetrators, and called for the use of a new language of 'readiness' associated with assets and strengths.
New Philanthropy Capital has appointed Dan Corry, a former head of the Number 10 policy unit and senior adviser to Gordon Brown on the economy, as its new chief executive, starting in October.
Pro Bono Economics, the charity set up by Martin Brookes to match volunteer economists with charities that want help to measure their outcomes, has worked with more than 25 charities since its inception three years ago and been approached by over 50.
