IMPACT
HR&S
Head-quaters in Stockholm Local Branches in African countries, and RISE Centres
We measure impact based on our TestE strategy, thus we compile output outcome and sustainable impact based on progress markers that were developed at the design phase of the programme. Progress markers are then adjusted as lessons are learned.
We measure impact related to our four services: management strategies, support to local social entrepreneurs, serving the under-served and sustainable development
Headquaters – Stockholm
Output
Managing lessons learned & informed decisions
Lessons learned and Informed decisions are announced on the partner website as they appear. HR&S develops organically.
Every strategy and new strategy is tested against progress markers. The progress markers, outcome and impact guides further actions. HR&S does not go against progress markers and outcome.
For example, one progress marker is the number of publications where HR&S have been acknowledged. If researchers depend on external support to manage, they will not be able to publish and there will be no such outcome, why free training events, or support with having research grants or free pieces of equipmnet, consumables, IT, or administration, shall not be offered. But coaching to insitution managements on Progress markers, and as part of generating high scores on the progress markers, insitutions may request and pay full price for HR&S training to researchers on the Startegy for Change.
