As part of this project, a discussion paper Measuring the outcomes of community organisations has been completed.

The ARACY-commissioned report, prepared by KPMG, focuses on through-puts, lack of a common framework for outcome measurement, use of qualitative and quantitative methods and how community organisation’s activities are supported. It highlights that not-for-profits, whether engaged in social service, social enterprise, sporting, recreational or other activities, provide a vital foundation for social inclusion.

The discussion paper will inform further strategy and project development work to be undertaken by ARACY in 2010.

ARACY is seeking input in response to this paper.
