Measuring impact inside emergent organizations - an in-depth case study of adopting the sustainable development goals

Measuring impact inside emergent organizations –An in-depth case study of adopting the Sustainable Development Goals is a work project which aims to demonstrate the challenges emergent social organizations must face when measuring impact and the best approach to surpass them. Through an in-depth analysis of Academia Ten, where multiple qualitative data methods and a “Framework” approach (Richie and Spencer 1994) were used, the case study enables the recognition of inefficiencies and strategic actions to consider. This research highlights the lack of literature related to this topic and the considerable differences between emergent social organizations and big-size organizations, where existing studies are focused. The case study also enables a better understanding of the reason why existing measuring impact tools are not suitable for thisspecific context
