1. STRAND II MEASURING SOCIAL ADDED VALUE

2. Main topics Comparability (framework?) Dissemination: bottom up process Dilemma: how to justify capacity building/processes/cultural changes in a RBM- results-based management context? Indicators or process? Is it a too technical question? Need to quantify costs. Every SE (even small ones) can do some kind of Social Value mesaurement

3. Improved recommendations Merged 2 recommendations (n.5-ESF should fund social value measurement tools and experiences n.6-ESF providing training and assistance) Added 1 recommendation (ESF new regulations say 20% must be spent on social inclusion. Every MA needs a tool to measure what socvial inclusion means) Modified 1 recommendation (social value should be horizontal issue in Structural Funds)

4. Concrete examples Poland: evaluation tool similar to one proposed in the project Sweden: socio-economic balance; piloting project with 14 SROI; Scotland: Social Audit Flanders: on-going quality evaluation and quality standard (benchmarking perspective) Czech Republic: Table of principles Some banks
