Research, evaluation and impact frameworks in dynamic social enterprise settings - Social Enterprise Scholar-Practitioner Forum 23 May - Dr Kate Barrelle - Catalyst 2030 & ASENA

Join the network fusing theory and practice in social entrepreneurship!

In this month's talk, Kate will share STREAT’s impact measurement journey over the last 13 years. She will also describe how Moving Feast approaches M&E and impact measurement across an emergent ecosystem of activities.

Each month we hear from thought leaders straddling the theory and practice of social enterprise - then facilitate inclusive and open discussion with a global audience.

It's a place for safe and brave conversation of real, lasting impact.
