Calling all impact and evaluation executives of Australian for-purpose organisations! You are invited to join our facilitators for a roundtable discussion about some of the challenges and opportunities that you (and others just like you) are experiencing in your role.

The aim of the Roundtable is to create a safe space for this growing group of senior social impact leaders to share and to connect. There’s no shortage of topics for us to talk about!

Date of next meeting: Thursday, 30 June 2022

This roundtable is for you if: 

• You hold a senior role in an Australian for-purpose organisation (you may or may not be in an executive position) 
• You are the ‘go to’ person responsible in the organisation for impact measurement and reporting
• You lead the organisation-wide rollout of your organisation’s impact strategy
