Project description
In collaboration with Hivos, Impact Institute has created CSRAfrica.com.: an online portal that helps growers, traders, and retailers from the Kenyan floriculture sector improve their societal impact. CSRArica offers up-to-date sector information, best practices, and a tool for impact measurement. Alongside the web portal, Impact Institute collaborates with local partners to carry out impact scans at Kenyan flower nurseries.
Benefits to the client
Collaborating with Impact institue offered Hivos a method to quantitatively measure societal impact. Our online portal shows different players in the floriculture value chain what their biggest impacts are, and where the greatest opportunities for improvement lie. The online social impact quick-scan is an opportunity for Hivos and their partners to directly gain insight into societal impact.
