SUMMARY:Launch of the Regenerative Evaluation Living Paper
DESCRIPTION:Regenerative Evaluation is evaluation in service of life: empowering people\, shifting power dynamics\, and therefore contributing to co-creating desirable futures. \nJoin us for the official launch of the Regenerative Evaluation Living Paper. \nThis publication is a collective labor of love from the Regenerative Evaluation Community of Practice. Over the past 2.5 years\, practitioners\, evaluators\, and changemakers have engaged in a deep inquiry to explore how we measure and engage with change through a regenerative lens. We have synthesized these insights into a living framework that weaves together systems thinking\, equity\, and ecological principles. \nIn this interactive launch session\, we will unveil the paper and explore: \nThe Shift: Moving from “proving impact” to “improving health\,” and understanding how evaluation can serve the vitality of the systems we work in. \nThe Principles: An introduction to the core mindsets that guide this work—from aligning with cyclical rhythms to cultivating self-reflexivity and honoring lived experience. \nThe Methodology: A walkthrough of the Seven Core Practices of Regenerative Evaluation\, guiding you through the phases of Grounding\, Tending\, and Replanting. \nWhat comes next? \nThis event is just the beginning. We will also share details about our upcoming Dialogue Series\, where we will invite various evaluators and practitioners to illuminate different aspects of the practice and explore connections with other evaluation approaches. \nWho is this for? \nEvaluators & Researchers seeking methods that honor complexity. \nFoundations & Funders looking for trust-based alternatives to rigid reporting. \nChangemakers who want to tell the deeper story of their impact. \nTo learn more about the people and ideas behind this work\, visit the Regenerative Evaluation Community of Practice here:  https://www.unityeffect.net/services/regenerative-evaluation-community-of-practice \nWe look forward to welcoming you! \nJannik and the Regenerative Evaluation Community of Practice \nPlease note: The workshop times are in Central European Time (UTC +1). Our workshops are designed to be a space for exchange. We will not record\, but you will receive our slides afterwards. We will exclude any AI tools for meeting notes (Otters\, Fireflies\, …) to enable open dialogue.

SUMMARY:Free Online Workshop: Empowerment - from getting things done alone to catalysing the potential of every team member - hosted by Unity Effect
DESCRIPTION:Free Online Workshop: Empowerment- From getting things done alone to catalysing the potential of every team member\nHow do you empower your team members to work autonomously while staying aligned with the overall vision? Ideas typically start with just a few people\, but as more contributors join\, different strategies are needed for getting work done. This can be a great opportunity for important conversations: ensuring everyone understands their role\, responsibilities\, and how they contribute to the bigger picture. This becomes particularly important when teams outgrow the “everyone knows everything” stage and need more structured clarity about who does what. \nAt Unity Effect – a social enterprise for more than six years – we’ve been in these situations too. We’re looking forward to sharing reflections and insights from our own work\, and from the organisations and clients we’ve worked with. Our understanding is grounded in the Source Principles developed by Peter Koenig. \nThis workshop is for: \n\nFounders who want to support their growing team and move away from being the central focus point for getting things done\nTeam or project leads that notice tension or lack of clarity around roles\, responsibilities and decision making\nTeam members that want to step into their potential but are unsure of their first steps\nIn our free workshop of 90 minutes we will:\nLearn how to work with Source Principles in your team and organisation\nExplore how to empower team members\nReflect on your own experiences around empowerment\n\nRegister Here

SUMMARY:Regenerative Signal: A Journey of Evaluation\, Recognition and Learning
DESCRIPTION:At Unity Effect\, we believe in creating the conditions for systemic change from the inside out. In a time of deep transformation\, from climate change and cultural disconnection to social fragmentation and global trade uncertainty\, signals of regeneration are all around and within us. Recognising and sharing about these signals are powerful ways to shape desirable futures. The Regenerative Signal: A 5-month Journey to Evaluation\, Recognition and Learning is our invitation to you to do exactly that. \nThrough our years of working alongside organisations\, we’ve seen first-hand how outdated measurement and evaluation methods can obscure the incredible work being done. They often fail to capture complexity – instead replicating inefficient patterns\, excluding that which is invisible (such as trust and inner capacities)\, and focusing on control rather than genuine learning. \nIt’s time for a new approach: one that is relational\, regenerative\, and life-centred. \nThis journey provides the language and tools for measurement and evaluation to truly support your ambitions. At Unity Effect\, we are committed to celebrating ways of working that follow the patterns of living systems: measuring what matters – not just what’s easy to count\, and turning the act of measurement and evaluation into a vibrant and insightful learning experience. \nWhat is the Regenerative Signal?\nAn interactive online learning journey. We will guide you through three core phases: \n\nDesign & Measure: Map out success\, establish indicators\, gather evidence.\nReflect & Evaluate: Interpret outcomes & impacts\, share insights\, achieve clarity.\nRecognise & Celebrate: Acknowledge achievements\, celebrate efforts\, inspire perseverance.\n\nWhat you get: \n\nE-learning modules: Deep dive into the Impact Garden framework at your own pace.\nLive workshops: Interactive sessions for practical application\, discussion\, and peer learning\, designed to foster collective sensemaking.\nPlug-and-play tools: Ready-to-use templates and resources for immediate implementation.\nTemplates: Practical guides to streamline your measurement and evaluation processes.\nAccess to peer community: Connect with like-minded organisations and leaders on a shared journey\, embodying the unity we believe is essential for powerful impact.\n\nWhat’s in it for you?\nIf you resonate with any of the following statements\, this journey is for you: \n\n “We’re doing good work\, but no one sees it.”\n\nLearn to recognise and tell the story of your organisation’s real impact. We empower you to move beyond surface-level reporting and articulate the deeper\, systemic changes you are creating\, reflecting our commitment to empowering every person\, team\, and network to have an impact beyond themselves.\n\n\n “We need grantees to show impact\, but don’t want to overburden them.”\n\nGet actionable insight without creating reporting fatigue. Our tools are designed to be integrated into existing workflows and are easy to use by non-specialists — helping your grantees reflect\, learn\, and report in ways that are energising\, not extractive.\n\n\n“Evaluation feels like a tick-box exercise\, the results are in a PDF somewhere.”\n\nUse intuitive\, people-first tools inspired by nature to make measurement and evaluation useful and energising. Discover the Impact Garden framework\, a model we developed that draws on the metaphor of living systems\, to transform how you understand and articulate your work.\n\n\n “External evaluators don’t get our context or culture.”\n\nBuild internal evaluation capacity so your team can reflect\, learn\, and tell your story from the inside out. We believe in strengthening internal capacities for resilient and healthy teamwork\, enabling you to better collaborate and navigate challenges.\n\n\n\nWho’s it for?\nWe’re recognising and celebrating organisations\, companies\, and foundations that are: \n\nLeading climate solutions and systemic change\nBuilding sustainable and regenerative business models and practices\nStrengthening communities and social ecosystems\nCreating sustainable products and services\nStanding up for justice and human dignity\n\nOur Method: Regenerative Evaluation with the Impact Garden\nAt the heart of this journey is the Impact Garden\, our signature framework. The Impact Garden is open-source and adaptable to your unique context. It has been refined through extensive practical application\, having been: \n\nUsed to evaluate more than 1.5 million EUR in investments\nUtilised by 500+ evaluators\, project leaders\, investors & business owners\n\nThe Impact Garden reframes evaluation as a practice in self-awareness and system-change\, exploring key dimensions: \n \nThe Impact Garden highlights the cyclical nature of real change – rarely linear\, always evolving. It underscores the importance of supportive conditions\, the fertile soil where resources take root and grow. By staying curious\, we can track outcomes and systemic shifts\, learning and adapting as change unfolds. \n  \nREGISTER HERE

SUMMARY:Free Online Workshop: Introduction to Regenerative Measurement & Evaluation
DESCRIPTION:For us here at Unity Effect\, the process of measurement and (impact) evaluation is based on curiosity\, joint learning\, sharing knowledge\, and applying methodologies that capture human complexity. It is an empowering process that reveals hidden opportunities and resources\, creates a deeper understanding of projects\, and opens up scenarios for joint action. \nYet\, as most of us know\, measurement and evaluation are often not applied in this way. In our 90-minute intro session\, you will therefore: \n\nlearn about the fundamentals and practical applications of a regenerative approach to measurement and evaluation\,\ngain insights into frameworks and tools that you can apply in your work\, and\nexplore case studies that bring Regenerative Measurement and Evaluation to life\, sparking ideas and inspiration for your own context.\n\nAs well as signing up\, you can read our reflections on measurement as a regenerative practice\, and how we applied those ideas to the Kofi Annan Foundation’s Changemaker Initiative and to our own Purpose Journey. \nAdditionally\, you can check out our Impact Garden course\, an introduction to one of our methods which we’ll present during the workshop\, featuring a deep dive into how the Impact Garden was used to evaluate one of ChangemakerXchange’s cohort-based programs. \nWe look forward to welcoming you! \nLaila & the Unity Effect team
