About

NatCen is Britain’s largest independent not-for-profit social research organisation, working collaboratively to generate evidence that uncovers the reality of people’s lives in the UK.

Summary

Youth Futures Foundation partnered with Ipsos, New Philanthropy Capital and the National Centre for Research on a project to support a total of nine organisations prepare for robust, independent evaluations and improve their internal capabilities for monitoring, evaluation, and learning. 

This reflection note captures insights from a collaborative workshop held at the end of the project to share key learnings, reflect on the barriers and enablers of this type of work, and generate recommendations for commissioners, funders and delivery organisations.
