Outstanding Collaboration in Social Impact Measurement (Not Applicable)

To be in the running for this award please complete and submit this entry form. The questions relate to the judging criteria, so you are encouraged to complete all sections.

Eligibility

Organisations may apply multiple times. However, you may only be considered for one category in the 2025 SIMNA Awards for each project or initiative. This entry form is for the Outstanding Collaboration in Social Impact Measurement award.

The Collaboration Award is intended to recognise a social impact measurement initiative that promotes strong collaboration. The intent is to celebrate collaboration and co-design involving stakeholders supporting, participating in or affected by the change – funders, impact organisations, beneficiaries and community members. While consultancies may be involved in the initiative, the engagement of a consultancy or advisor is not generally regarded as a collaboration in the assessment of this Award.

If you want to submit an entry for a different award category please click on the correct link on the SIMNA Awards home page. If you have any questions about the categories please contact Laura Glynn laura@simna.com.au.

Supporting documents

In addition to the word limits, you may attach either:

a five-page document (A4, 10pt or equivalent) containing a logic model/theory of change, images, graphics, and supporting evidence; or
a five-minute video presentation.

Judges are only asked to review supporting information within these limits. Anything beyond that may not be considered.

Judging Process (Not Applicable)

The SIMNA Awards celebrate those that have undertaken high quality social impact measurement AND are using social impact measurement to improve decision-making.

Because of this, judging is conducted in two parts:

Purpose and Application – This considers the extent to which the social impact measurement project is outstanding in its specific category and the degree to which decision-making and the delivery of social outcomes is (or will be) influenced by the results. This part constitutes 40% of the overall score.
Technical Quality – This considers the technical rigour which is evident in the project and the general application of Social Value International’s Principles of Social Value. This part constitutes 60% of the overall score.
