two.1.4) Short description
The #iwill Fund is a collaboration between the Fund and the Department for Digital, Culture, Media and Sport (DCMS), working with Match Funders to create Youth Social Action opportunities. We have tendered to find a Supplier to help evaluate an increase of funding in the #iwill Fund between October 2022 and March 2027. This evaluation includes providing evidence of the impact of the #iwill Fund and will also provide a learning strand to support youth social action provision.
The impact evaluation will address key questions, including what was the impact of #iwill Fund projects on young people and their communities? What was the impact on Match Funders and delivery partners from the #iwill Fund's convening and other support? What was the overall value for money of the #iwill Fund? (It will be scoped as to whether this is feasible in the feasibility phase of the evaluation). For the learning strand, some of our key areas of interest include: How can Youth Social Action be accessible to all young people? What are the most effective ways for funders and delivery organisations to measure the impact of Youth Social Action? Have the opportunities provided by the #iwill Fund supported a journey of Youth Social Action for young people? What are some of the ways organisations can evidence this over time? What is the role of youth voice in ensuring the quality of Youth Social Action? We expect new research questions to emerge as the contract develops and expect at least an annual review to identify new questions.
