What is Enduring Impact?
The Right Intention
At the start of an initiative, it’s important to ensure that your program is connected to the mission and strategy of your organization. It’s easy to get focused on the details and forget this important “sanity check.”
The Right Context
When creating international development and social impact programs, it’s easy to determine a solution based on what has worked for you. But that is not necessarily the best solution for those you’re looking to impact. You need to understand the context behind your program in order to design it to meet the mark.

The Right Collaboration
Collaboration is key. If the purpose of your program is to create an effect on people, organizations, communities, countries, or regions, a clear partnership is crucial. How will you know you’re on the right path if those partners are not sufficiently engaged?
The Right Implementation
It’s not only important to have the right idea and partnership. You need a solidly designed program that is implementable in the country in which you plan to work. You also need a solidly operating organization in order to execute it.

The Right Follow Through
International development and social impact programs often seek to create generational-changes in a multi-year project timeline. In order to have a lasting impact, you need to have a contextualized and realistic definition of success and a clear plan to measure it throughout.
The Right Impact
Impact is a tricky thing. It means different things to different sectors, organizations, and individuals. And there are many external factors to any such endeavor. We work with organizations at any and all steps in this process to develop a customized assessment, program design and “realism check” to help you determine the right impact and the right approach to enable it to endure.
