Impact-oriented Steering – the Concept of NGO-IDEAs "Impact Toolbox"

The NGO-IDEAs “Impact Toolbox” has been developed with the support of a group of active NGOs in South India, in the area of Savings and Credit. This compilation of methods to apply in impact-oriented steering, or "results-based management", was devised by the executive staff of the Indian partner NGOs, also known as the Resource Persons, in 2006 and tested from late 2006 to late 2007.
