The problem is not measurement, it's how we drive the use of it: A funder’s guide to enable grantees to move from compliance to learning

Based on ISDM’s research into how funders shape impact measurement and, in turn, data practices, this funders’ guide explores how measurement can move beyond compliance and reporting to support organisational learning and better decision-making. It highlights how funders can enable grantees to reflect on data, understand the factors influencing outcomes, incorporate community voices, and adapt interventions to context—making measurement a tool for continuous learning and improvement.
