Green Impact Measured is a collaboration project in the field of non-formal adult education and learning financed by Nordplus. The aim of the project is to strengthen the ability of social entrepreneurs to measure their organisations’ impact on the environment and increase their capacity to contribute with tangible data to a greener, more sustainable future. We use here the term “societal impact” as we understand that benefits to the environment frequently accompany benefits to communities, like improved air quality or reduction of waste disposal.

ARE YOU A SOCIAL ENTERPRISE OR AN ENTREPRENEUR SEEKING TO MEASURE YOUR BUSINESS GREEN IMPACT?

This Workshop Facilitation Guide for delivering impact self-assessment workshops compiles the whole project’s effort and learning journey, as well as insights and information collected in the partner countries: Denmark, Latvia, Lithuania, and Sweden.

It is provided as a resource for social entrepreneurs themselves, as well as educators and trainers, to deliver workshops to a wide range of adult learners and promote sustainable practices.

This document will go through theoretical information, resources, links, and activities that can be completed within teams or groups.

Rather than establishing a unique, “one-size-fits-all”, pathway for social enterprises to develop their green impact measurement strategies, the guide recognizes that enterprises in different sectors have different needs. Therefore, it is based on a self-reflection and self-assessment approach, through which information and activities will be presented for you to reflect on your own business and capabilities to initiate the process of drafting your own, personalized green impact measurement strategy.
