About the Impact Narrative Tool

Welcome to the Impact Narrative Tool!

Divided into six modules, the tool guides you through developing and sharing your impact narratives. In the videos and text, we provide you with explanations, tips and interview protocol to help you gather information for your narrative. You don’t need to follow all the modules or in a set order but choose the modules that are helpful for you. There is also a quiz to test your knowledge on impact narratives, which also offers help in (re)choosing which modules to take.

The Municipality of Delft, Erasmus Medical Center Rotterdam, Erasmus University Rotterdam, the Netherlands Center for Youth Health and Healthy Start have collaborated to develop the Impact Narrative Tool. In developing this tool that focuses on reflecting on and sharing impact, we are trying to build an impact culture that inspires others to do the same.

We developed the tool in response to the challenges that people and organizations experience in articulating their impact and inspiring others. Our vision is that impact narratives inspire movements in which people and organizations are actively engaged to create sustainable positive change, reflect on their experiences and share them with others. We encourage users of the tool to share their enthusiasm about their work with others and learn together.
