Hi @ella @sanja @massimo-menichinelli and anyone else interested in impact assessment and communication.

From my side, I can share with you what I am trying to do for my association: I am trying to figure out the most appropriate framework / indicators / parameters to measure the impact of our initiative (linktr.ee/noiortadini).

Our main objective is to measure social impact. Trying to specify even further, and explaining the end objective in a simple way, we want happier and more connected community gardeners. Eventually, we will add environmental impact measurement in the future.

How are we proceeding?

• We have been keeping&updating a logbook of our activities and achievements in the last 3 years (which are our first 3 years)
• Now we are looking for existing frameworksin scientific papers about urban community agriculture
  • in Italian organisations that already have/offer frameworks (e.g. Avanzi; Next Impact)
  • in ISOs, Deming cycle, Theory of change and other “tools”
• We’re wondering the objectives, the feasibility, how often we will gather information, if through a digital form, if by single persons taking part or from other data sources, if subjective data with e.g. Likert scales or other; whether to have yearly evaluations or what

Any idea? Inspiration? Suggestion? Help?
