Measuring Innovation - Evaluation in the Field of Social Entrepreneurship
FSG's white paper on new approaches to evaluation in the rapidly emerging field of social entrepreneurship was commissioned by the Skoll Foundation for the 2005 Skoll Forum on Social Entrepreneurship at Oxford University. Based on interviews with a selection of funders, thought leaders and social entrepreneurs, the paper provides an overview of evaluation practices in social entrepreneurship and highlights ways that this new thinking might both inform and benefit from other approaches to evaluation among foundations. The appendix includes a selection of sample evaluation forms used by leading funders of social entrepreneurs. |
