HVFC Conversation with Maaike Blom from Data4Development: The ideal NGO

Maaike Blom has been working in the non-profit sector for over 30 years. She has seen many different types, sizes and forms of NGOs from the inside as an employee and the outside as an advisor. Over the years, she has seen many of those NGOs struggle with the challenges of how to measure, collect and report on their activities, outcomes and impact. This could be made much simpler and easier! Therefore she has co-foundedData4Development , a social enterprise that supports NGOs in streamlining this process of capturing results in a cost effective way from the onset.

In this conversation, Maaike will tell us all about how the ideal NGO would deal with these issues, and how that could benefit both the organization as well as its impact.

This conversation takes place within the celebration of our 5th anniversary, as part of a new webinar series: HVFC Conversations. This is a series of interviews with our partners, clients, colleagues and networks on a variety of topics around the international development sector.
