On each of our trips and with feedback from Love Mercy Uganda staff, we could see the progression and improvement of communities in a tangible way – families in the program had more food, they could send children to school and begin saving. They seemed happier. How could we know for sure?

We decided to measure it. 

Huber Social create a benchmark for organisations to track their impact using a social value metric framework based on wellbeing. The surveys and process result in a measurement of ‘collective wellbeing’ that will position every person to achieve their potential. Through our partnership with Huber Social, Love Mercy Foundation began measuring the wellbeing of individuals and communities in northern Uganda.
