Our impact

Understanding the impact we make and interventions that work and those that don’t is really important to us – it is core to our approach of using our frontline experience to spark change at scale. 

In everything we do, we therefore seek to be clear, honest and accountable. Our impact reporting is rigorous and robust – and purposely so, because it matters. We interrogate our data, use independent evaluations to validate our achievements and share openly what worked and what didn’t, seeking to constantly improve. 

These figures speak for themselves – they are just a small sample of the things we measure to be able to understand the impact we are making:

Our approach to impact measurement

  • We produce high quality data – that is rich, accurate, audited, timely, secure and analysed
  • We focus on outcomes, not just activity. For example, we focus on measuring survivor recovery, so we can be sure that what we are doing improves people’s lives in the long term.
  • We know how important transparency and accountability are and use evaluations by independent experts, and communicate our impact with honesty
  • We use data to help us adapt programmes, making sure our interventions are effective
  • We believe survivor-centric and ethical approaches are crucial, and empower survivors to shape, not just be the subject of, our research
  • We leverage learning for systemic change – producing and sharing blueprints that move the sector forward globally

How we count

We’ve carefully considered what to measure when it comes to our impact and only share data we can confidently support. Working closely with partners like the police, we count outcomes only when we’ve played a clear role in achieving them.
