Impact Architects

Impact Architects uses our training in the humanities, social sciences, and business, paired with our experience in journalism, media, and philanthropy, to build and measure high-impact strategies that contribute to social change. At IA, we've developed customized impact frameworks and measurement plans for dozens of newsrooms of various sizes, including for-profits and non-profit organizations, such as the AP, NPR, Documented, and the Center for Investigative Reporting. Impact Architects has supported dozens of organizations in creating and implementing IA Impact Trackers in order to measure the offline impact of their work and to communicate this impact to various stakeholders, including members, subscribers, and institutional donors. We've designed and implemented impact measurement and evaluation plans for newsrooms as well as some of the largest journalism funders nationally, including the Ford Foundation, Democracy Fund, Bill & Melinda Gates Foundation, and the Walton Family Foundation.
