At educate. we see impact as a cycle. Our work aims to set in motion a cyclical process of impact based on three key themes: learning, leading and growing. We conduct ongoing impact assessments together with the youth, parents and teachers in our communities to assess the impact our work is having, whilst identifying strengths and weaknesses. Ultimately, we are working towards creating an ongoing data infrastructure that is integrated within our work, capturing the perceptions of communities so that our work can continue to be driven by genuine local needs while becoming increasingly efficient and targeted.
Our visual definition of impact, below, captures the core values of educate.’s central mission.
Learn
Developing personally; gaining knowledge, skills and confidence; encouraging action.
Are students learning?
Lead
Acting to inspire and empower others, enabling growth.
Are projects led and driven locally, and are students being encouraged to be leaders in their communities?
Grow
Empowerment takes hold; educate.´s long-term and self-sustaining focus leads to ongoing and continuous growth of individuals and their communities.
