Data+Soul Virtual Learning Series: Meaningful Measurement
2026-09-30 12:00 - 13:00 | https://gc.gcdev3.com/mcn/events/datasoul-virtual-learning-series-meaningful-measurement/
Data+Soul Research invites you to join us for our ongoing learning series, exploring approaches to making evaluation more equitable, transformative, and full of soul.
About this session
Join Data+Soul Research for a conversation on how using qualitative data collection approaches can help you gather deeper, more nuanced insights while measuring impact.
In this workshop, we will discuss key considerations for identifying and using culturally-responsive data collection approaches to gather feedback and understand impact. We will also address the desire to “quantify the qualitative” and make the case for how a qualitative-first approach can lead to more rigorous, meaningful, and robust data. Using recent case studies, we will highlight qualitative data collection approaches – Ripple Effects Mapping (REM) and Outcome Harvesting (OH) – and demonstrate how these methods can be used by non-profit organizations and funders to rigorously gather meaningful evidence and articulate impact.

What would it take for evaluation findings to extend beyond the evaluation report and actually inform strategy, design, and organizational learning? Join Data+Soul Research for a practical discussion of how we all navigate this question in our daily work.
In this workshop, we will explore what gets in the way of using data for learning and showcase strategies for building a practice and culture of learning. We will introduce two tools and use real-world case studies to illustrate how these tools have been used effectively to cultivate a culture of evaluative thinking and ensure that evaluation is used to inform organizational strategy and program design.
