#24 What ‘Impact’ Really Means – And How To Plan and Measure It

What does the word ‘impact’ really mean? Measuring impact in all its forms is central to how PIDG works with partners and local communities to enable long-lasting, meaningful change.

With the launch of PIDG’s 2024 Sustainability and Impact report, we’re spotlighting two impactful initiatives from our portfolio which highlight how impact can be intentionally planned for, measured and sustained.

These projects are with the Dhamana Guarantee Company, which supports the growth of sustainable businesses in Kenya by enabling access to finance. And Arya.ag, India’s leading grain commerce platform, which is helping to build financial inclusion and climate resilience for farmers.

Hear how these initiatives are helping improve access to new or improved infrastructure and pushing us towards a more sustainable and climate-resilient future.

Our guests are:

  • Christopher Olobo, CEO of the Dhamana Guarantee Company
  • Prasanna Rao, Co-founder and CEO of Arya.ag
  • Pritisha Uttamchandani, Senior Sustainable Impact Manager at PIDG
  • And Cristina Traini, Senior Sustainable Impact Manager at PIDG

Your host is Marcel Klebba, Communications Manager at PIDG.
