  • VAVA Report: Counting for More

    Date: December 2007
    Description: This project follows the initial work conducted in the 2004 VAVA Project. The whole project is about shifting paradigms in our own thinking and the thinking of those who interact with voluntary and community sector organisations. The concept behind the VAVA project is simple: to examine the value we add to the economy and society. For the first time we are now able to present practical methodology, templates and a framework for putting the measurement of outcomes (and effectiveness) in our sector within reach. Based on intensive work with participants Literacy Aotearoa and the Royal New Zealand Plunket Society, Counting for More provides solid evidence that the return on investment in social services does count for more!
