Join us for our NGO Academy Online Keynote with Alnoor Ebrahim revealing what to do when impact measurement does more harm than good!

<p>Is there a dark side to accountability? Can metrics of social impact sometimes do more harm than good?  Join Professor Alnoor Ebrahim for a conversation on metrics of social impact and the conditions under which they can both help or harm organizations in delivering on their missions. He will provide a framework for measuring social change that goes beyond the current obsession with outcomes, and towards more strategic forms of measurement and accountability.</p>

<p>Alnoor Ebrahim is a Professor of Management at The Fletcher School of Law &amp; Diplomacy, and the Tisch College of Civic Life, at Tufts University. He is author of the award-winning book, Measuring Social Change: Performance and Accountability in a Complex World (Stanford University Press).  Alnoor serves on advisory boards to the Stanford Social Innovation Review (SSIR) and the World Bank's Global Partnership for Social Accountability (GPSA). He previously served on an advisory board to IRIS+ at the Global Impact Investing Network (GIIN), a working group established by the G7 to create global guidelines on social impact measurement, and on the board of Imago Global Grassroots. Professor Ebrahim received his doctorate and master’s degrees from Stanford University, and his bachelor of science from M.I.T.</p>
