Why measure impact?
Monitoring and evaluations are part of our quality management. This enables us to communicate transparently to our donors whether and how we are achieving our mission and vision.
The impact of the award on the Sustainable Development Goals is tracked worldwide. Our impact measurement is therefore included in the International Foundation’s reporting.
The results have a significant influence on our strategy, as our organisation is geared towards results-oriented management.
Our vision is a world in which every young person has the opportunity to develop to their full potential, lead a self-determined and fulfilling life and help shape our society.
Our mission is to anchor personal development in educational institutions. We help educational professionals to realise this. We motivate young people to get involved in social and ecological transformation.
We do this with a passion for non-formal education and experiential learning and the desire to contribute to greater educational equality, both socially and individually.
Our association is part of The Duke of Edinburgh’s International Award Foundation, which supports and accompanies national programme providers in over 130 countries.
We are part of the alliance of the largest global youth movements ‘The Big Six’ and cooperate with the UN and WHO, among others, in ongoing projects to contribute to the implementation of the following SDGs:
Our results-orientated management is based on clear KPIs. These are evaluated and adapted annually. Evaluations are based on the OECD’s definition of the five levels of impact (OECD 2009): Input, Activity, Output, Outcome and Impact.
