Municipality of Voorne aan Zee - from social challenge to impact, indicators and steering
Within the Municipality of Voorne aan Zee, I help guide the shift towards more mission- and outcome-driven working and steering on social impact within the social domain. The challenge is to translate social ambitions from policy statements into a workable framework for monitoring and steering.
Approach
- Used the impact model (opens in new window) as a basis to make the relationship between social challenges, intended effects and steering more concrete.
- Developed an initial social domain monitoring framework for steering on social impact and challenges.
- Translated the framework into an initial set of substantive indicators for monitoring and outcome-based steering.
- Created an initial content design for a social domain dashboard bringing together effects and indicators.
- Facilitated the process to better connect policy, monitoring and steering information.
From framework to concrete product
This approach forms the basis for a repeatable service for municipalities that want to move from policy goals to steering on social impact: social challenges → desired impact and effects → indicators → monitoring → dashboard → administrative and policy-level steering.
