AQWA (Assessment for Quality Water Access) is a French association created in 2015 by 4 students and young workers. For one year, from September 2016 to September 2017, we will conduct missions that aim to assess the social impact of innovative initiatives and businesses, and that will last between 5 and 7 weeks. We are part of the new generation of "Explorers” of the association (IM)PROVE (formerly called Planète d’Entrepreneurs), with which we share values, mission and methodology. Since its creation by students from HEC Paris in 2009,(IM)PROVE has been helping entrepreneurs all around the world, as well as larger French companies, measure their social impact, optimize their innovative business models and promote them. Our missions consist in - A rigorous evaluation of the social impact of your activity on your various stakeholders, in accordance with the core of your initial mission - A final report including relevant performance indicators and recommendations to optimize your impact - Other deliverables according to your needs and desires (videos, interviews, etc.) The objectives of social impact assessment are multiple. By providing a better understanding of the mechanisms of social impact, its measurement allows- To better control, adjust and improve it - To better communicate and highlight the scope of the activity, especially among partners and investors - To (re)motivate internal teams
