While impact measurement and management is a core feature of impact investments, many impact investors struggle to define what to measure and, subsequently, how to collect the appropriate data. IRIS+ Core Metrics Sets help investors answer what to measure and how to use impact data to inform decision-making. This practical guidance document builds on the experience and work of CDC Group to help answer the question on how to collect appropriate data. It does so by reviewing different data collection tools that can be used with IRIS+ Core Metrics Sets and the IRIS Catalog of Metrics.
This document belongs to the How-To guidance series of IRIS+ which provide examples of how to use IRIS+ in practice.
