Transforming Knowledge into Change

Transactions Transformations Translations: Metrics That Matter for Building, Scaling, and Funding Social Movements

Metrics can help organizations articulate where they are going, what road they are taking, and what they expect to find along the way. They can help groups strike the right balance in the trade-offs above, allocating time and energy to be maximally effective. They can serve as a guide and tool for lifting up lessons for the field and for funders.

Drawing from some of the best thinking from the field, this report presents a framework of metrics related to base-building strategies and offers a menu of examples for foundations and organizations that want to more fully capture and translate the art and science of base building.
