We craft a unique approach to every project we work on and tailor our support to each client we partner with. The launch of each project includes a process of relationship building and expectation setting that enables strong collaboration and high satisfaction with deliverables and results.

Evaluation
Together we can capture and share the impact of your work.
Rigour and evidence-based decision making is central to our work and we bring a reflective and curious mindset to each project we undertake. We have designed evaluation tools and frameworks for projects at a local, provincial and national scale. This includes conducting multi-year developmental evaluations for Social Innovation Labs and summative and formative evaluation of programs, initiatives and events.
We use a multi-level approach to help you:
-
Zoom out to understand broader systems and capture your work’s impact
-
Zoom in to understand what’s working, what’s not, and how we can learn and adapt
-
Zoom forward to accelerate your work and move through your theory of change.

Roots & Rivers provided us with a stellar education in Impact Measurement and gave us the tools to transform our evaluation activities into a means to achieve the goals of our Strategic Plan. They were thoughtful, professional and they helped us transform our organization’s understanding of, and strategy for, impact measurement. I have no doubt that the valuable coaching Roots & Rivers provided will benefit VTN for years to come.
