Foundation for Young Australians and YLab Studios
Melbourne | 2019
Developed by YLab studios, the Impact storytelling project is an initiative of the Foundation for Young Australians (FYA) to deliver training and support to young people working on gender equity projects in Victoria.
Think Impact were engaged to develop a two-part evaluation; firstly to measure the impact of training on young people’s communication and storytelling skills and the effect on their ability and confidence to collaborate as a network of change makers.
The second part of the evaluation focused on the impact of the film produced by the young people on it target audiences; including its content and themes and potential to spark state-wide conversation and behaviour change.

Social Innovation Partnerships Shared outcomes framework and implementation plan
City of Melbourne
Melbourne | 2019
The City of Melbourne engaged Think Impact to develop a shared measurement evaluation framework to enable greater understanding of the overall impact of the City of Melbourne's investment in Social Innovation Partnerships. The evaluation framework has created a model for shared measurement to capture the change being created for organisations, for people and for communities collectively across a diverse mix of projects.
Thirteen Social Innovation Partnership projects were selected in the first two-year funding round to receive a maximum of $80K funding per year.
Projects span a diverse range of initiatives; however, they share common ground in seeking to provide innovative solutions to tackle big social issues at a local level including entrenched disadvantage, disengagement and social exclusion.
