Book Talk: Measuring Social Change

Join Tufts University professor Alnoor Ibrahim for a partner-exclusive conversation about his book “Measuring Social Change.”

The social sector is undergoing a major transformation. We are witnessing an explosion in efforts to deliver social change, a burgeoning impact investing industry, and an unprecedented intergenerational transfer of wealth. Alnoor Ebrahim addresses one of the fundamental dilemmas facing leaders as they navigate this uncertain terrain: How can we track performance towards worthy goals such as reducing poverty, improving public health, or advancing human rights? This book tackles three core challenges of performance faced by social enterprises and nonprofit organizations alike: what to measure, what kinds of performance systems to build, and how to align multiple demands for accountability.

This talk is part of our 2024 Democracy Book Series, which also includes conversations with Steven Levitsky, Daniel Ziblatt, and Yascha Mounk. Registration will open exclusively to partners of the Jewish Partnership for Democracy in early January.
