Etkiyap Forecast Social Return on Investment Report

“This document has been crafted as a ‘forecast’ report for measuring the social impact of Etkiyap, covering its activities from its establishment (mid-2020) until the second half of 2023. To address the query, “What value has Etkiyap created for its stakeholders?”, the SROI framework has been chosen and employed, which embraces a wider spectrum of value creation.

Etkiyap endeavors to enhance Türkiye’s impact investing ecosystem by raising awareness of this investment model across industries and society. As an independent, not-for-profit platform, its diverse range of activities aligns with its mission to nurture the establishment and growth of an impact investing ecosystem in Türkiye, an arena still in its early stages. Hence Etkiyap:

• Advocates and brings together diverse stakeholders to create a strong impact investing sector in Türkiye
• Creates success stories by developing and executing alternative and innovative financing models
• Through international collaborations, it plays a role in positioning Türkiye as a prominent player in the global impact investing arena
• Assuming a leadership position in impact measurement and management, facilitates the sharing of methods and best practices utilized in this domain
• Fosters the development of personnel skilled in impact measurement

Etkiyap’s activities encompass various facets such as awareness-raising, policy advocacy, collaboration, networking, community building, research, thought leadership, impact measurement, reporting, capacity building, and support, engaging a wide spectrum of stakeholders. While services like training and programs yield structured stakeholder engagements, identifying and reaching Etkiyap’s whole ecosystem stakeholders remains challenging due to the ecosystem’s dynamism and diversity. Therefore, within this analysis, it is decided to focus on three core activities of Etkiyap. However, with this forecast analysis, as a groundwork for future analysis, it is believed that more rigorous analysis can be done in the future with special attention on identifying and involving stakeholders.”
