The workshop will consist of two parts:
- General introduction to the history and background of SPM in philanthropic organizations, social enterprises and nonprofits. To include an overview of different methodologies. Participants will learn about best practices through case studies.
- The second part will focus on the most important issues when starting with SPM: including the logic model, setting objectives, SPM-frameworks, verification, valuation, etc. What time and money resources are needed to start working on PM?
