Lotterywest Impact Café Series MOORA
Monday 16th June 2025
The Impact Café Series is your invitation to sit down, grab a cuppa, and work through the ‘how’ of creating positive change. Whether you’re shaping a new initiative, preparing a grant application, or looking to strengthen your approach to outcomes measurement and reporting, this workshop will equip you with the tools, language, and confidence to turn issues into impact.
This practical, hands-on session will explore:
☕ How to define the real-world change you’re working towards
☕ How to design initiatives with clear outcomes in mind
☕ How to use logic models and theories of change to map your pathway to success
☕ Simple, meaningful ways to measure progress and tell your impact story well
You’ll walk away with a clearer sense of purpose, and tools to help your projects demonstrate real value — to your funders, your partners, your community, and most importantly, to yourselves.
