Social Impact Canvas for Professional Creators & Artists

Description
The Social Impact Canvas tool empowers you to understand how your work resonates with your audience and society. The Impact Canvas is designed to help with measuring and understanding the impact of the cultural and creative organization. It supports finding adequate measurement instruments that focus on things that really matter and helps in considering different kinds of data as part of cultural work. It can assist in uncovering novel revenue streams and support financial stability.

For whom
The workshop is aimed at professional creators/artists and requires that you be employed by or represent a registered company based in Skåne. To get the most out of the course, it is recommended that more than one person from the same organization/company participate in the course session, but the workshop can also help individual entrepreneurs who do not have any partners or whose partners can’t come.

The Purpose with this workshop is to give participants the ability to go beyond conventional social issues, defining the precise social impact of their cultural business according to their vision.

You can use the canvas to, for example:

• Gain a clear understanding of your work's significance and its influence on your audience.

• Identify data and indicators that really show the value of your work.

• Make operations more economically sustainable.

• Identify value alignments with funders and improve value statements to financiers.

• Link your activities more explicitly to the needs and challenges of your audiences.

• Examine what your organization does from various perspectives.

Please note: The workshop is free for participants thanks to funding from the European Social Fund. The workshop fee therefore counts as government support for your company/organization. This means that you need to sign a form of 'negligible support' (so-called de minimis) in advance and a certificate of participation afterwards. We will help you with all of this if you are accepted, but this applies without exception. Your registration is only binding after you have confirmed your place with a signed de minimis-form.
