Impact & Learning
Measuring whether opportunities lead to meaningful change
EFFO distinguishes between activities and outcomes. We do not consider a programme successful simply because people attended training, received materials or registered for services.
What we measure
We examine whether people are able to access opportunities, use them and progress.
