Proving Impact With Evidence
Impact measurement provides the evidence that your programmes are delivering real change. Meraki Research designs measurement frameworks that go beyond outputs (how many people reached) to measure outcomes (what changed) and impact (what difference it made).
Theory of Change Validation
We test whether your programme logic holds: are the activities producing the expected outputs, do outputs lead to outcomes, and are outcomes attributable to your intervention? Our research validates or refines your theory of change with primary data.
Beneficiary Research
The most credible impact evidence comes from the people your programmes serve. We design surveys, interviews, and participatory research with beneficiary populations to measure perceived and actual change.
Social Return on Investment (SROI)
Where appropriate, we apply SROI methodology to quantify the social value created by your programmes in monetary terms — providing a compelling metric for boards, investors, and funders.
Programme Evaluation Design
We design evaluations at every stage: baseline studies, mid-term reviews, and endline assessments. Our designs include comparison groups and longitudinal tracking where feasible.
